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 … [Read more...]

That also means that there is the potential for some items on this site's "no hfcs products list" to revert to … [Read more...]

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! … [Read more...]

Thank you to reader Emily for alerting us all to a new non-hfcs find: Kashi's TLC (Tasty Little Crackers).  It's amazing to me how many crackers actually have high-fructose corn syrup in them. If you find something to go on the list, please use the contact tab to share it with all of us.  The more eyes watching for these types of items, the better!  In the near future I plan to set up a searchable database to make it easier to find what you are looking for here.  In the meantime, at least the foods with no high-fructose corn syrup list is categorized. … [Read more...]

Sweet Leaf Tea does not use high-fructose corn syrup in their tea, they use sugar!  Plus they have a totally cute website and a (very subudued but vehement) rant about using sugar and good ingredients over using cost-cutting ingredients. … [Read more...]
