Hey guys,
Did a quick search but I don't think anyone else has posted about it. I read an interesting article in the Guardian (uk newspaper)about the amount of sugar and specifically corn syrup being pumped into our (processed) foods. It enlightened me about some things, especially the comparison with the tobacco industry.
