Le sigh. I guess you guys don't read the other threads where I complain about marrying a Vegan. We don't even allow meat in our house. We have fresh fruit and veggies daily, and grow our own in the summer. There's no choco-coated sugar bombs in the cereal cupboard, just Cheerios, Rice Chex, and Raisin Bran (which I know has sugar , Kellog's brand even has HFCS). The bread I used to buy was marketed heavily as being all natural and healthy, and it was trash. We switched to Dave's Killer Bread (made locally in Portland) about 6 months ago. I had to switch the brand of yogurt I was eating to get rid of the HFCS. I do drink a small glass of OJ every day, and I will only buy Florida's Natural (I know some of the other brands have HFCS). I'll admit I don't have the best choices in food, but I don't eat fast food, don't drink soda anymore (aside from a diet every once in awhile from our SodaStream machine), and I steer clear of the candy aisle. I also drink at least 1L of water a day.
I'm telling you, this crap is in things you never even thought of, like salad dressing (and yes, the healthy ones, not just the Baconated-Ranch), friggin Corn Flakes and Special K! Hanson's Tonic Water, most Iced Tea and Lemonade, Pepperidge Farm 100% Whole Grain Bread, most ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise, Nutri-Grain bars, heck, NYQUIL has it! Wheat thins, baked beans, applesauce, PICKLES, A1 Steak Sauce, even most soups and canned vegetables!
