This is a good article on AOL today about the health concerns associated with High Fructose Corn Syrup. Crystal and I have made an honest effort to eliminate many sources of HFCS from our diets already. I can't shake sodas yet - which are probably the worst offenders (of HFCS and a myriad of other cancer causing chemicals), but we've done well in other regards. We've even stopped buying the Claussen brand Kosher dill pickles that we so adore. Hmm, side note, maybe we could try pickling our own cucumbers (Crystal - jot that down if you're reading this)?? I already knew I had to cut back my HFCS intake since I was diagnosed with IBS. It's not like anyone would happen to prefer HFCS in comparison to other sugars, but it's just so darn prevalent. Anyway, enjoy the article and comment below with any thoughts.
