Other deceptive products include "Minute Rice," which takes longer than a minute to cook, and "Swiss Miss," which is not made in Switzerland. The article also mentions "Kellogg's Corn Flakes," originally marketed as a health food but high in sugar, and "Velveeta," which is not real cheese. Additionally, it covers "Cool Whip," a non-dairy whipped topping, "Boca Burgers," which are meatless but designed to taste like meat, "Smart Balance," which claims to be heart-healthy but contains trans fats, and "Pringles," which are marketed as potato chips but contain only a small percentage of actual potatoes.
