I'm just astounded to find that High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is in canned kidney beans. Why?
Of course, HFCS is in ketchup. Knew that. Hot dogs (I know, horrible "food", but still!!!), some breads, chocolate syrup, cereals. The list could go on and on.
I read a few weeks ago that sugar can be metabolized by many cells in your body. HFCS, on the other hand, can only be metabolized by the liver. Our poor livers are so overburdened trying to keep our blood clean. Pesticides, drugs (legal and not), alcohol, xenoestrogens, etc... are overloading our systems.
Is it any wonder that such a percentage of America is obese and depressed?
We have to get back to living off of what we grow (organically). Just made peach jam yesterday. 9 pints of orange goodness that will cheer even the saddest of souls in February.
Putting up corn in a few days by freezing it. Yum!
