and the best way to avoid it is to cook your own meals and bake your own treats

Frankly, what Mrs WBill makes is far better than anything I could get in the store.

That being said, there's nothing wrong with eating a couple of "Oreo" cookies (or whatever). The problems stem from eating a couple of packages of Oreos. Then, sitting on your butt 12-16 hours a day and not exercising them off.

But, since the backlash is starting up against HFCS, and since politicians have no self-discipline and assume everyone else is just like them ....I'd look for HFCS to be regulated in the near future.

Oreos are designed to be extremely easy to consume in large quantities and to not be very filling, thus inspiring you to eat them in large quantities.

It's just good marketing and product design.
