Have you seen those new commercials for High Fructose Corn Syrup? No, I said it right, for, like in favor of HFCS. Here’s the one that I found particularly hilarious. Umm right because far be it from me to actually READ for myself what’s wrong with HFCS or actually be able to use critical thinking to make my own decisions. Here is a great resource for real info about why limiting or eliminating it from your diet is a good thing. The point they are trying to make is that cheap, mega processed preservatives are actually good for you in moderation. What exactly does moderation mean though? Take a quick look down every. single. aisle of your local chain grocery store and find something that comes in a box or a bag without it. Go on, I dare you. Wheat bread, rice, soup, juice, crackers, spreads, yogurt…I could go on for hours. So bascially it’s in everything. The commercials are funny but only because it’s so obviously ridiculous. “It’s natural because it’s made from corn”. Awesome. Brought to you by your friends at the Corn Refiners Association who have absolutely no vested interests. They just care about your health and your family and want you to be happy. Well happy and hopped up on fruit punch laced with crack.
It is hilarious and sobering at the same time.
