Once I became aware of how bad HFCS was, and started monitoring my labels, I realized it is in EVERYTHING. I've since given up all processed foods, so never consume it, but you really have to monitor your labels to avoid it. Also, another great book is Animal, Vegetable, Miracle by Barbara Kingsolver.

The Corn Refiners Association has deep pockets, but awareness that HFCS is a subtle poison is catching on with the public; here's hoping that grassroots articles like yours help ensure that their publicity campaign is just money tossed to the wind. The fault is not only within the corn refining industry, however. HFCS wouldn't be so ubiquitous as a cheap sweetener if the federal government wasn't artificially increasing the price of sugar with protective tariffs designed to boost the cost of sugar imports and "protect" domestic sugar producers.
