High Fructose Corn Syrup

Wow, did you ever think that you could be an addict? Walking down the isles of your local discount store you are beckoned to the candy isle. Instantaneously your mouth begins to water, you begin wandering which lucky bag of candy is going to be yours. Then you look around to see if anyone you know is around, you must set a good example. The coast is clear, but you can't even wait to check out, at once you rip open the cellophane and begin consumption. Your fingers can hardly push the buggy and open the wrappers, this does take some skills, ones that I have perfected. You wish your kids were with you to blame the candy on them. You could say you were a secret shopper doing some research, or fess up and tell them you are an addict. I haven't heard of too many people who confess to this HFCS addiction. If there is anyone out there who feels my pain, let me know how you have replaced this terrible addiction.

And for what reason did High Fructose Corn Syrup come to mind???? This didn't have anything to do with a Sun-Drop incident did it????

I've never thought of it being HFCS that was the problem for me as much as the chocolate sugary goodness. What is the stuff in peanut butter that makes you want to consume mass quantities?
