I was in the grocery store yesterday and I needed to buy some bread (whole wheat of course). I just so happened to look at the ingredients of the majority of the brands that were on the shelf and I was quite surprised to see that high fructose corn syrup was listed rather high on many of the lists. Sometimes as high as second! It amazes me how sneaky food companies can be. Many people buy whole wheat or whole grain breads thinking they are making a healthy choice, when it fact all they are buying is flour with high fructose corn syrup and food coloring. Yummy! [FYI: that was sarcasm].
If I had to make a list of the most sneaky bastards ever, it would llook like this:
1. Food Companies
2. Ben Affleck (why Jennifer.......why?)
3. George Bush (come on...this one is easy).
In short, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make sure you look at the ingredients before you purchase your bread. While it may say "whole wheat" or "whole grain," you still need to play it safe and take a look at what's actually in there
