Corn Syrup Conspiracy

[annuin]

*Reads label of her potato salad in disgust*

Why is there fucking high fructose corn syrup or corn syrup in nearly every fucking food product in this country?

It's not a huge surprise this nation battles obesity like it does when there's corn syrup or sugar in everything, even savoury products that shouldn't have it (bread, pasta sauce... and not just a touch either, to the point where it actually tastes sweet too *shudder*).

bread machines are a shit ton of fun- my mother has one, and she used to make all these homemade loaves with like oats and nuts and whole wheat in them, and they were soooOOOooo good!

i never noticed how much sugar was in american food until my cavities got real bad recently. before, eating a candy bar would send me reeling with pain. sometimes a sandwich has the same effect- and that's just sick!
