Share  Nicci asks: Do you avoid high-fructose corn syrup?   I'm
hypoglycemic, so I read ALL labels and avoid as much sugar as I
can. I've discoverd HGCS in almost everything, even loaves of
bread, cans of soup, especially boxed cereals. I WON'T eat any
of these items becasue I don't want to overwork my pancreas
(isles of Langerhorn) and become a diabetic. I teach people
about reading labels all the time, ex. Yoplait contains so much
junk, they CAN'T call it yogurt anymore so they changed the
name. It's unfortunate that it's such a BIG seller because it's
JUNK. Read the label. Jiff, Peter Pan, all those junk peanut
butters containing sugar & partially hydrogenized fat are also
responsible for obesity. I teach parents to feed thier children
REAL peanut butter. I could go on & on about the food industry &
what it's doing to fool people these days. But, people need to
take responsiblity and READ the labels on their food packages.
Another really bad
