Someone needs a history lesson. The first Thanksgiving was all about the pilgrims giving thanks for all candy they got trick or treating the month before.

Three CHEERS for sugar! :)

Is sugar even used any more? High Fructose Corn syrup is now the sweetener of choice for most manufacturers.

It’s from a fake campaign ad that’s been playing on talk radio as a JOKE this season

Not only do I not care, no one with a brain should care. A bit of high fructose corn syrup on a holiday never harmed anyone...get over it

Sugar is a mood changer. There's no problem on earth that cant be solved by eating a sugar-laden dessert.
Better sugar than some destructive chemical drug.

Judy Garland told the story about being made to work day and night. She was miserable......
until David Rose (soon to be her husband) would take her out to get a fresh-baked apple dumpling,
glazed with sugar, and topped with ice cream.

It’s because sugar is white.
