I have read articles that indicated that HFCS was a bigger issue for people with gout. And the sated issue is important as well, I think that ties into the idea that HFCS and sugar are not absorbed by the body in the same way. The research is definitely ongoing.

Yeah, salad dressing always blows my mind. Most dressings I use don't even have sugar (or if they do it's 1 gram or less), so why I need HFCS in there is a bit of a mystery.

I don't disagree that making all your food is a good way to keep sugar or HFCS out of your diet. Not everyone has that option though, both due to finances and time constraints. That's why I personally always check the labels.

Not a problem. I didn't mean to come across as overly touchy myself.

Poor wording on my part - I wasn't disagreeing or criticizing the article or you, just trying to convey that it really is difficult to avoid the stuff when they seem to want to put it into everything possible. There are even brands of honey that have HFCS now.

And I just listed a massive # of foods that contain it besides 'cereal or bread'. As the article itself points out, it's ubiquitous nature is a problem. There are even brands of honey that contain HFCS now. You have to be very label-aware when shopping these days.

RE: Healthy, I'm aware it's not regulated. And I don't hate HFCS (not sure where you're getting 'hate' from), I am just pointing out (as the article itself does) how ubiquitous an ingredient it is. I was shocked at some of the foods that contained it.

Here's the problem with #4 - HFCS is being pumped into everything. Not just the usual suspects. HFCS is in ketchup. HFCS is in salad dressings (even 'organic' & 'healthy' brands). HFCS is in root beer, iced tea, lemonade, soda, bread, 'heart healthy' cereals, english muffins, crackers, mayo, cough syrup, yogurt,…

Love the new interface, but it has crashed repeatedly since updating on my system. Hopefully they'll get it sorted soon.

Confession time: I didn't know who Ariana Grande was until this morning, when I watched one of those 'Kids/Elders react to' videos on YouTube. I felt very, very old.

I accept your basic premise, but at the same time this is about de-friending your ex on Facebook.

I wouldn't recommend spraying your nice furniture with vinegar if you want it to continue to be nice furniture.

I've used it for years and it absolutely searches through older installations for leftovers.

The newspaper thing really does work (the odor absorption, that is, I've heard mixed results about using it on windows). I bought a used TV and PU did it stink (the previous owner was a smoker). I thought I'd never get the smell out, but I wrapped it in a plastic trash bag full of newspaper for 2 days, and while it…

I agree 100%. It's just OTT R&B loverman schtick.

I'm not saying she spread disinformation about vaccines because it was fun, of course not. However, with the literal mountain of evidence to the contrary, I do believe she selectively ignored it because it didn't fit the worldview she chose to subscribe to. The reality is she has access to information and resources…

She is knowingly spreading disinformation and actively encouraging people to do things that are bad for their children. This makes people angry with her, and I believe rightfully so. She has a platform, and with that platform comes a responsibility to use it wisely. Not all of the people who take her word for it have…

Yes, but is GC really an expert on the situation? Is he the person we should turn to? Of course not. But I'll guarantee you there are people out there that only know about it from him. It's the same basic syndrome, just a different presentation.

Because she's a celebrity and thus has a platform to espouse her views that most people don't have. She was also going on CNN and other networks with the hack doctor that faked the study indicating the connection between autism and vaccines, and then she claimed she cured her son's autism through hugs or something. I…

'That's of course my ego, a boy's ego, she must be married, she's gay, what's wrong?'
