Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 I need to work 4 more hours at our co-op before the end of August. I might see about writing an article in their monthly newspaper about all these artificial additives like HFCS in exchange for hours. We'll see. But I saw it in a Sweet and Sour Sauce at Trader Joe's too. So now I'm having to be careful with TJ's stuff.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 I don't know if I missed the post, but what's the deal with HFCS? I never really liked foods with it in it in general but never knew anything specific. I remember back in the US I would buy natural applesauces...they were more bitter, being more natural but adding cinnamon on my own helped. I also like applesauce with oatmeal, mmmm! , " melissa_hopp " <hoppmel@c...> wrote: > > > > > That high fructose corn syrup is sneaking up > > everywhere lately... > > Yeah - I read labels & always by the " natural " applesauces...all the > good fresh fruits are available right now, so I haven't bought any > in a while...and our apple tree will produce loads of gravenstein > before too long, they make great sauce! > > > > > There was an excellent article last month in Organic > > Style about this ingredient.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Hey there, I did a Google search of " High fructose corn syrup " and " dangers of " and got a slew of results. This was the first in the list of hits: http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Dangers-of-High-Fructose-Corn-Syrup & id=28535 If they let me do the article I will do a bit more research and will post it here.
