Thanks for that list. I've been avoiding high fructose corn syrup for years.

It isn't easy. All labels have to be checked. "100% whole wheat" breads often include it. It's very common in yogurt. Tomato sauces, read the label, and avoid sauces that might include it in restaurants.

The situation should improve with the new publicity. But then the manufacturers will come up with some new body poison to use as a cheap sweetener.

I'm thinking "sugar alcohol" is probably not something I'd want to consume.

Sigh....nothing is easy anymore.
