Wildly Fluctuating: Misleading the Public

Geeez. This kind of thing makes me so

The latest commercial for HFCS where the guy is trying to pick the kind of sugar that made him gain weight from a police lineup is one of the most misleading things I've seen. I wonder how many people watching it will wonder WHY the makers of HFCS are spending BIG $$$ to advertise a product that's used as a food additive 99% of the time. There are no bottles of pure HFCS on the grocery store shelves, in other words. Yes, I know light corn syrup sold in the baking aisle is basically HFCS. But no one writes HFCS on their grocery list. A thinking person realizes the commercials promoting HFCS are a clear attempt to stave off the rising tide of opposition to that heinous stuff.

This makes me really angry.

It's time to go cold turkey on the artificial sweetners.
