High Fructose Corn Syrup I Hate You


Today’s Weigh In: 379.4lbs

The other day I went on a shopping trip to my local super market looking for some raw food salad dressing. The only problem was everything I found including the diet stuff contained High Fructose Corn Syrup.  What is the deal with that?

How could diet, low fat salad dressing contain Corn Syrup? I spent at least an hour and I am not kidding reading labels. Thank goodness I now read the labels now because I would have otherwise bought that junk.

You know I had to make a video about that trip and have a one on one discussion with you about this right? Check out the video below as I tell you my opinion on this horrific shopping experience.

Later,

  1. I don’t mean to be negative here but if you want to have a salad with NO corn syrup in it then you are best off just not using salad dressing. It’s the same way you wouldn’t eat ketchup because all sauces/dressings are (due to their very nature) bad for you. If we didn’t need to squeeze so much flavour into a liquid for it to work as a sauce then we would have sauces that are good for you but ultimately they are few and far between.

    Salad dressing isn’t one of them.

    I don’t think your being negative at all. In fact, I think you have a great point. I just like to enjoy what I am eating and know that just because it is a salad doesn’t mean it should have to taste bland.

    I found healthy and exciting ways to be inventive with adding tastes to my salads without the (HFCS).
    This is a lifestyle so I really try to focus on eating in a way that I will not get bored out my mind. I am sure you can appreciate that right? LOL :)

    The pomegranate vinaigrette dressing at Wendy’s doesn’t have HFCS (all their others do).

    Thanks I have not tried that yet. Right now I am making everything I eat from scratch and trying to avoid the fast food places.. :)
