P&H Soda & Syrup Co. Brooklyn, NY Review

Recently I attended a street fair, and met street vendor
P&H Soda Co. selling soda syrup, staffed by Owners: Anton & Erica

You have to ask:
Just how healthy is a street vendors soda syrup product?

Sure, it may taste good all sugar products taste good BUT
Is it GOOD for you?

P&H Soda is pretty scary stuff if you put your trust in
Your dentist and the Scientists at Colgate-Palmolive Co.
Manufactures of the worlds leading brand - Colgate Tooth paste
Colgates reports the negative effects of natural sugar, and soda syrup;

Soda & Tooth Decay Report Review:

Both my dentists and Colgate agree:
Natural Soda Syrup has been proven to wear off protective tooth enamel.
It will cause cavities, gum disease, tooth infections;
including; root canal disease. (root canal repair costs upward of $3,900)

Be safe:
ask your personal family dentist about sugar and soda syrups
negative dental effects. Get smart dont trust a street vendor.

And don't ask Anton Nocito the owner and chef of P&H Soda Syrup Co
www.pnhsodaandsyrupinc.com for his opinion.

Chef Anton Nocito Educational Bio includes;
- Never graduated from a four year Accredited College
- Took a few baking classes at the French Culinary Institute
- No record of Graduation from the French Culinary Institute
- Worked for 11 different employers in 10 years
reported by: Restaurant Database
- View transcript here:     http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/3773/72414085.jpg
-   an excellent blogger and promoter without academic credentials

It appears Mr. Anton Nocito NEVER graduated from
any accredited college, or food institute.

Really, what are Chef Nocitos qualifications?
I bake bread as a hobby can I be called Chef Judy?

Nocito will tell you his all natural sugar soda syrups are
healthy, and made without bacteria fighting preservatives.

I found it worrisome that P&H Soda and Syrup does not list
the syrup ingredients, the fat content
or calorie content on their syrup bottle labels.

What is P&H Soda hiding?
Maybe quite a lot.

We also found the following to be extremely worrisome;
----------------------------------------------------------------------
- We tried to locate Nocito's restaurant, couldn't find it
- We tried to locate the P&H Soda and Syrup
- manufacturing plant -bcouldn't find it
- We tried to locate a P&H Soda and Syrup - store, -couldn't find it
- We tried to locate the P&H Soda and Syrup - Corp Office - couldn't find
it
- We tried to locate the P&H Soda and Syrup business phone number
no Verizon listing
- Could not locate a State Record for a Liability Insurance
Bond

Issued to the P&H Soda and Syrup Co Inc., P&H Soda Co. or Anton Nocito
- No record for food permits or certification

QUESTION:
========
Would you buy and drink soda syrup from unknown company imported from China?
The same may hold true for P&H Soda Co. that runs a
transient booth stand at NYC street fairs.

Buyer Be Ware was my mothers favorite expression for decades

For health safety reasons;
my recommendation is to stay away from unknown food products and
transient food vendors that dont list a business address.

Sincerely,
Judith Wiegel

Dear Anthony Tizzi, Judith Weigel, Rivernos, Roger Whitlock, Mica, Sandra Pools, Judith676 or whatever name youre choosing to go by this week,

I would like to respond to all of your accusations with proof so that its clear that you are simply slandering me under various names, on multiple websites:

http://www.my3cents.com/showReview.cgi?id=100998

http://bit.ly/mTyzuu

http://bit.ly/oTR9mY

To start with, we are not a ghost company as you have stated. We are licensed by the Department of Agriculture and Markets and do hold a 20-C license that currently hangs on the wall of the commercial kitchen that we work out of. The address is:

1053 Manhattan Avenue
Brooklyn, NY 11222.

You are more then welcome to stop by and see the license any time Im there.

You can actually see me working in the space in the following video here:

http://bit.ly/fTOaN4

If you watch the video youll see me speak about how I think soda should be a treat, not something you drink everyday. You will also see that I use natural ingredients. Nothing is artificial or hidden.

Our soda syrups are also tested and approved by the NECFE at Cornell University in Geneva, NY.

http://necfe.foodscience.cornell.edu/

You claimed that we do not list our address anywhere but if you had purchased a bottle of our soda syrup you would see that it is clearly printed on the label, right next to our ingredients. This is a requirement by the government before we sell any products to our consumers. You can see it by clicking the following link:

You claim that we are a fly-by-night, transient street vendor. We do sell at various local markets. We are insured and licensed to do so. The market that we frequent the most is New Amsterdam Market. Hardly what any New Yorker would consider transient.

http://www.newamsterdammarket.org/

This market is dedicated to preserving some of New Yorks history. We sell at this market with the hopes of helping it become a permanent year around market like the ones in San Francisco or London. We also do these markets because it helps promote our brand, a brand that I stand behind fully.

P&H Soda Co. has developed a following over the past year and a half. Do you think the following publications would or any other accredited publication would write someone up that was considered a ghost or fake?:

You are correct about me not graduating from college. I chose to go into the Air Force instead. During that time I fought in our first Gulf War. I was honorably discharged after 4 years of service. I then went into butchering for 6 year and attended The French Culinary Institute graduating on 4-13-99. Im sure if you contact the school you will be able to find out that I graduated in the top of my class.

Im glad you found a copy of my resume online. You linked to it in some of your comments. If youll notice, I worked for some of the top restaurateurs and chefs in NY. Google the restaurants and you will see that some are three star restaurants. Your screen snap of my resume accidentally cut off the education portion so Ive linked to the actual website here:

http://www.chefdb.com/nm/10405/Anton-Nocito

I did hold a number of positions, some of them at the same time. They were all a learning experience. Had I just worked at one place for ten years I would not have been able to learn everything I learned.

I would like to thank you for following myself and my company P&H Soda Co. If you have any further questions or comments, please feel free to contact me anytime.

Anton Nocito
