| HFC'S The day the music died.Been workin' out like crazy and just can't get fit? Been sweatin to the oldies and just keep lookin' older? Then I got what you need! Tell your friends you've found the fountain of youth! Check this out...
HFC'S, Death in a box...err, a can...err, a bag. Oh hum! I guess they are in just about everything!
High
Man! I just can't get over how much of this crap is in everything we eat! For example: all sorts of cereals, fruit cocktail, powerbars, candy bars, coke, diet coke, pepsi, diet pepsi, mello yello, orange soda, this soda that soda, blue bell ice cream, canned corn, canned fruit, canned kidney beans, canned pinto beans. Every sauce under the sun except the ones actually imported from Asia: every single type of BBQ sauce, honey bbq sauce, hot sauce, medium sauce, mild sauce, honey mustard sauce, picante sauce. If it says sauce...it's got HFC'S baby!
Fructose
The list goes on: bread...honey wheat, 100% whole grain breads, white, wheat, "healthy multi-grain", pop tarts, so called "nutri grain" bars (pure HFC'S), even my precious protien bars, Cambell's tomatoe soup! hearty this hearty that healthy select soups, Smucker's jelly, marinade, tomatoe katsup, even the "butter maple" syrup made in my very own home town in GA (not a drop of maple in it baby!), cereal bars of all kinds, Welch's 100% berry juice, Sunny Delight, juice this juice that...oh yes, even pop-ice sticks!
Corn
HFC'S do two key things to our bodies, yes these three are an abomination to Mr. Goodbody: they get inside and turn into fat/cholesteral, they tell the body it is NOT full, they make things taste sweeter. This does two things, yes three things are an abomination to healthy eating: it makes us fatter/clogs our arteries, makes us think we need to eat more, and slips all that sweetener(/fat/cholesteral) past the FDA's required label. <this lable only requires simple sugars and fats, carbs etc be listed...not the ones that your body converts or cannot proccess>
Syrup
What self-respecting food company wouldn't infuse their "product" with something that is cheap, exists in abundance, makes it taste sweeter, and tells our stomachs we need to eat more of it? Ever studied marketing? "If their were such a chemical," you say, "it would be in everything"...oh wait, it is. I think it's even in my cell phone...perhaps I should go check my truck's gas tank! What will we eat! Lions and tigers and bears oh my! Danger Will Robinson, Danger!!! As for me, I'm going organic/anything I can kill in my yard. <I wonder if there are HFC'S in that stray dog...>
What will you do? |
