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.
Just checked my bread , no HFCS. Honey, raisin juice ( really) and molasses.
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.
Sounds like impending CrippleTron doom!
I kind of get a kick out of seeing a bunch of people in wheelchairs moving fast, very sure of where they're going, taking over the sidewalk ... I just get out of their way and watch my toes.
regardless of whether it's actually better for you.
I suspect that ingesting the same volume of cane sugar as HFCS has similar health effects. But the ish is that they stick HFCS into everything, and it's easy to lose track of how much sweetener you are really eating.
Dag, still out of the loop.
Not as far as one of my editors, who corrected an Ari Gold quote for me this morning.
Because I'm ahead of schedule, so I thought it amusing to write back "Just call me Helen Keller, cause I'm a miracle worker, baby."
He writes me back "Actually, they were talking about Annie Sullivan with that title, really,"
Which, in this body, at this age, is a ginormous "No, duh," for me, right? Though I have to confess I was dork enough to want to say the same thing when it came out of Piven's mouth, but I didn't, and I'm glad. Cause it's a buzzkill, and that's the point, isn't it? Ari reads just enough to be dangerous...
