Another HFCS warning

corn

I was reading over all of your blogs tonight and came across this post over at Kicking and Screaming.

I usually try to avoid high fructose corn syrup, but break my rule for an occasional soda or other snack.

HFCS can contain Mercury.

READ THAT AGAIN.

HFCS can contain Mercury.

Mercury. Wow.

Being a human being, and more specifically, a woman of childbearing years, this is a toxic nightmare. You can bet your bottom dollar I'd rather go hungry than consume anything with HFCS in it, EVER AGAIN.

Way to go, FDA. You've once again illustrated why you do NOT have American's best interests in mind.
