In my continuing quest to find out what shit the major food manufacturers are loading into the food we eat, I am noticing things like "iso glucose, glucose-fructose syrup, fruit fructose" and a few others.  Guess what?  They are all High Fructose Corn Syrup!  It's getting to the point where in order to avoid eating HFCS you need a dictionary, thesaurus and an organic chemist!

I have found the following information in several, well respected publications:  "Americans' number one source of calories is...HFCS"  No wonder we (as a nation) are so fucking fat! Our main source of calories is sugar!  No wonder we have so many ADD kids, the little bastards are on the mother of all sugar highs.

For reference: 1 ounce = 28 Grams

These numbers are "per serving"

• Ben & Jerry’s vanilla ice cream -- 16 grams
• Starbucks caffè latte grande (16 oz) -- 17 grams
• Subway 6″ sweet onion teriyaki chicken sandwich -- 17 grams
• Yoplait original yogurt -- 27 grams (WTF? That is basically an ounce!)
• Vitamin Water (20 oz bottle) -- 33 g (Fuck me!  Water with more sugar than yogurt?)
• Oscar Mayer Lunchables crackers, turkey & American cheese -- 36 grams
• Coca-Cola Classic 12 oz can -- 39 grams
• California Pizza Kitchen Thai chicken salad -- 45 grams
• Jamba Juice blackberry bliss 16 oz -- 49 grams
• Odwalla SuperFood 450 ml bottle -- 50 grams
• Starbucks caffe vanilla frappuccino grande (16 oz) -- 58 grams (more that two ounces!)

And finally the one that will fuck you up, pinch your nipples and or kick you in the nuts; The Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnut.........ready?....................(grab the Vaseline).......are you sure that you are ready?..............Okay, here it is.................don't say I did not warn you......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... A Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnut has,,,,,,,, 10 grams of sugar (per serving).

JUMPING JESUS ON A FUCKING POGO-STICK!   A bottle of "Vitamin water (you  fucking lying ass bastards, vitamins my ass!) has three times the sugar of a fucking glazed doughnut!!!!!!!  How the fuck can a person eat healthy, without spending hours a day decoding this shit?.... (other than you, who read this blog religiously) 

I'm working on a little side project,  I'll post it A.S.A.P.  And i am sorry that i have not posted more often this week.  Work and personal obligations have kept me from the keyboard.  I have gone so far as to get an app that converts voice to text, so that I can work on the blog throughout the day and email it to myself to edit later. 

Thanks for reading!  Pass this link on to friends.
