carbs aren't bad. We need them...
But high frcutose corn syrup is the worst kind of sugar (IMO of course) that you could consume as far as sugars go. And in America it seems to be in everything!
I have recently taken to agave nectar when I want a sweetner. It's very sweet so you only need a bit to get the sweetness.

corn syrup is - well - a clear, corn based molasses? Sticky, sweet.. grandma used it to make popcorn balls. High Fructose Corn Syrup is worse, more processed, and in Everything in the US instead of cane sugar. Whole wheat bread? yep, ingredient #2 in the non-organic aisle.
I decided to cut it out of my diet as well - and definately noticed feeling better without it.

Franken foods... The super markets in america are FULL of them!!
As much as I love my sweets, I'll take them made with whole wheat flour and evaporated cane juice TYVM!
In the grocery aisle I don't live by the mantra "better living through chemistry". I have to be able to pronounce the ingrediants!
