When I buy bread, I always buy whole wheat; my preferred brand is one of the few that doesn't actually taste sweet, but then I noticed they had a sugar-free version ... more expensive of course, but I prefer that.

The whole wheat bread here at work is sweetened with molasses instead.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Pepsi has come out with "Throwback" sodas - their regular lineup, but made with cane sugar instead of HFCS. They say it's a limited run. I think they're putting out a feeler to see how popular it is, in the face of all the bad press about HFCS. I hope they make it a permanent addition to their line, because it tastes much better, regardless of whether it's actually better for you.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Bread is one of those stealth foods that almost always has HFCS, in my experience.
Seriously. I am obsessive about keeping HFCS out of my diet (unless I'm mainlining Sour Patch Kids, which just needs to happen some days), and the amount of stuff that it's in is staggering.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Just checked my bread , no HFCS. Honey, raisin juice ( really) and molasses.

Oh yeah, I think the bread we have has raisin juice too.

There are some products starting to take it out - Thomas' English Muffins I notice has a big thing on the label "no longer contains HFCS."

In turning the tables news ... the NCIL (National Council for Independent Living) is having their annual conference downtown. As a result, we're having some instances of wheelchair gridlock. In addition, the wheelchair people are taking over some places, outnumbering those on foot. It's kind of an interesting perspective, having them be in the majority, even for a brief while.

mfnlaw and I had dinner last week and we noticed a large number of wheelchair/mobility impaired patrons in the restaurant and bar.
