is there anything out there that we can still eat??

I am not big on fast food. I mean when there are so many other options out there I would rather eat but I am a realist. I know that there are times when you don't have the time to go home a make a healthy, satisfying meal and a Big mac is easy, fast and tastes really dang good. I don't live in a cave, I know that in order to make these things taste so good and make money fast food restaurants don't always use the freshest, high quality ingredients. So when studies come out stating the obvious - just how bad fast food is for us, I am never really surprised, mildly disgusted, but not surprised.

The latest 'bad thing' that scientists have been saying is in our food is high fructose corn syrup. If you watch The View you know that high fructose corn syrup is bad for you. Whoopi has mentioned several times that it was banned from food product because it was bad for you and then the government removed the ban. Like every other additive in food, I never really paid attention to it though, until now.

This is the first time that I have ever decided to search for a list of the actual foods containing HFCS and dang!! It's a long a$$ list!! And this is only a list of the foods from fast food restaurants, the list of the products that are on grocery shelves for daily consumption is even longer!!

So have a gander, maybe this will help you make some 'better' choices, if there is anything on the menu left to eat.
