List of Products with No High-Fructose Corn Syrup
If you would like to be alerted when this list is updated, sign up for the RSS feed (In the upper right, or Click here to Subscribe to High-Fructose High by Email).
Always Check The Label Yourself! I always check before submitting something to the list, but sometimes companies change things, so be sure to always verify on the label itself. This list is meant to be a guide and not a bible. I hope it’s very helpful in finding products with no high-fructose corn syrup, but if you’re sensitive or have allergies especially, always always double-check the label yourself!
This is a list I have compiled (and am actively adding to) of products which do not contain HFCS. These are all products that now seems to contain HFCS more often than not – so I am posting when I come across a brand/variety that does not contain it (last I checked, anyway).
If you have some finds you’d like to share on this list, send me the info, and I will add it here.

No High-Fructose Corn Syrup Additions
Freestone Peaches and Bubble Up
Two awesome, nostalgic finds for today’s update to the Foods With No High-Fructose Corn Syrup list!
First is Lady Elberta Freestone Peaches! They are packed in “heavy syrup,” but it’s not hfcs. I remember from my youth my father going nuts over “freestone peaches.” I haven’t had any forever, but I’m going to use this can to make homemade Peach Cobbler. The recipe I have is from my Mom’s collection and my grandma says this was my great-grandma’s recipe. So there is all kinds of nostalgia in today’s finds already.
Next is the soda-pop “Bubble Up.” I didn’t even know they still made that any more. It’s a lemon-lime carbonated drink, and it says right on the bottle (yes, bottle) “Made with real sugar.” I don’t know where you can find this in regular stores. I got this bottle at a tiny, old-fashioned movie theatre in the heart of Seattle, where they sold popcorn in old fashioned bags and all the pop and candy was “vintage.” Well, the brands and styles were vintage. I hope they haven’t truly been holding them since they first came out!
Both finds are pictured here. Enjoy!
Annie’s Naturals & Wallaby Organic Yogurt
Two new finds for the NO-hfcs products list.
These two products contain no high-fructose corn syrup:
• Annie’s Naturals Organic Creamy Asiago Cheese Dressing
• Wallaby Organic Yogurt (all flavors)
As these are personal finds, I will be writing reviews of them soon – stay tuned! I will also be adding several new finds sent to me recently by e-mail.
I always appreciate it when visitors to this site send me an e-mail with their finds! Most so excited about their finds and many people have health problems they believe are associate with high-fructose corn syrup. So they are excited to find this list as well.
If you would like to be mentioned on the site, just give me permission to post your name (first name only is fine, location would be great, too) when you send me an e-mail with your find! I will even link back to your site or blog if you would like. I love link love! 
And I like to give back to the people who contribute to this site!
Swiss Premium Iced Tea
Swiss Premium Iced Tea is joyously announcing to the world that their prodcut contains no high-fructose corn syrup! I love when, not only does a product stay away from HFCS, but it makes point of announcing in on the label. Makes it so much easier to make a choice!
Thank you, Swiss! They offer several varieties of premium iced tea:
- Iced Tea with Lemon
- Diet Iced Tea
- Green Tea with Ginseng & Honey
- Southern Style Sweet Tea
and more.
Sounds good to me!
(full disclosure: I received no compensation or tradeoff for writing this post. It is simply my own exuberance at finding yet another product that contains no high-fructose corn syrup and proudly displays that fact!)
Products With No HFCS – New Additions
Several new additions to the No High-Fructose Corn Syrup list
- Dannon Activa Yogurt
- Campbell’s 25% Less Sodium Chicken Noodle Soup
- Nabisco Original Triscuits
- Mott’s Natural Apple Sauce
- Wheat Montana breads/rolls
New Items With No High-Fructose Corn Syrup
New items were added to the list of food products that contain no hfcs. Thank to everyone who keeps sending in their finds!
• Franz Whole Grain White
• Thomas Kemper Sodas
• Special K Original Waffles
• Kashi Go Lean Waffles
• Bull’s-Eye Original Barbeque Sauce
I’m always pleased when we can add new items to the list, but I’m especially pleased when someone write in that the product explicitly stated “No high-fructose corn syrup” right on the the front of the package! It means they’re starting to listen!
Hall of Shame – Campbell’s Soup At Hand Creamy Tomato Soup
Just Stop!
A new feature here at High-Fructose High – the Hall of Shame!
When a product that most people would not expect to have a sweetener in it lists high-fructose corn syrup in it, it is a contender for the Hall of Shame!
Today’s entry into the High-Fructose High Hall of Shame is Campbell’s Soup At Hand Creamy Tomato Soup. High-fructose corn syrup is listed as the THIRD ingredient!
Tomato puree, water, high fructose corn syrup…
WHY? That puts 1 serving of soup at 34 grams of carbohydrates (24 grams of which are SUGAR carbohydrates) – according to their own label.
That is, in my opinion, not much better than drinking a can of pop for lunch and popping a vitamin c lozenge. Your thoughts are welcome in the comments section!
BEWARE: You Can’t Go By the “Natural” Label When Choosing non-HFCS Products
In what I truly thought was a joke, the FDA has said that, because the enzyme used in the high-fructose corn syrup process is not contained in the final product, that it can’t be said that high-fructose corn syrup is not natural. Or some such vague verbiage that sounds cop-outish to me.
Whatever THAT means, what it means for you is that you can no longer go by the “100% Natural” label if you are trying to choose products which contain no hfcs. Unless the product says “organic” or “contiains no high-fructose corn syrup,” you’re going to have to go back to turning over every product while shopping and read the ingredients list.
That also means that there is the potential for some items on this site’s “no hfcs products list” to revert to having hfcs in them. I hope not. But if you spot any discrepencies, please do let me know.
Three Additions Today
We Love It!
Under “Beverages” we have Blue Sky Soft Drinks and Archer Farms brand Natural Italian soda.
And under “Bread” we have Franz “McKenzie Farms” Old Fashioned Buttermilk Bread
Continued thanks to everyone who writes in! I can personally vouch for tastiness of the McKenzie Farms bread. The more natural a product is, the closer to homemade it seems to taste. This bread is good for sandwiches and especially toast!
Trader Joe’s 100% Maple Syrup
It will probably come as no surprise to most that Trader Joe’s has 100% Maple Syrup (no high-fructose corn syrup, of course) and Organic 100% Maple Syrup (No HFCS there, either).
But I was surprised to find it for about half the price the super-market sells it for. I have eliminated HFCS out of most of my diet (that I know of), but it’s not always easy when you have a child. Especially if that child likes pancakes on occasion.
I had always found the price of real maple syrup prohibitive. But I’m happy to report my find today at Trader Joe’s, and that I brought home a bottle of it in my grocery sack this afternoon. I am very happy about this!
Increasingly, it seems that Trader Joe’s has nearly every type of item you would find in a regular grocery store with the exceptions that it is better quality, healthier, fresher, less expensive, and the staff is down-to-Earth, friendly, and happy you are there!
I guess I’ll make a new category on High-Fructose High for “Raves.” And this post about Trader Joe’s gets to be the innaugural entry!
Grilling Season: Alternative to Pre-Made Marinades
Now is the time on High-Fructose High where we share a little Link Love! Bart over at Bart Modern’s Bowleg wrote a great post on mindfulness when making food choices. He talks about grilling and how it “lines up nicely” with healthier eating and healthier choices.
My favorite part is the last two paragraphs where he describes how easy it is to make your own marinade/rub, complete with directions and grilling info. Check it out!
