I just read that the Corn Refiner's Association is petitioning for a name change for high-fructose corn syrup to be labelled as "corn sugar" on products containing hfcs. I'm pretty sure most of the people who already read this site are smart enough to figure that one out, but I thought I should broadcast it just in case. If they think their product is so great, I wonder why they don't broadcast it on package labels. Like a big badge on the front of Worcestershire Sauce that proclaims - "Made with high-fructose corn syrup!" Why are they trying to cover it up instead? I'm pretty sure I answered my own question there. Your No HFCS Blogger, Sherry … [Read more...]

July 25, 2010 By Leave a Comment
One of the worst "offenders" when it comes to high-fructose corn syrup is that of the condiment variety. Just today I found out Miracle Whip has hfcs in it! Even as much as I've researched about this stuff, I'm still occasionally surprised to find a product that uses it. And also today, I found this site: http://www.ecosalon.com/say-goodbye-to-high-fructose-corn-syrup-and-creepy-preservatives/ which posted simple, delicious-looking recipes for some of our favorite condiments. I will definitely be trying some of these out! … [Read more...]
High Fructose Corn Syrup Commercial – SPOOF!
July 24, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Have you seen that commercial with the Moms talking about juice and high-fructose corn syrup? Here is the spoof video that was created in answer to that. Pretty funny! As if you can add so-called "positive elements" to make the negative ones just "go away." They also forget to address the fact that it's almost impossible to consume HFCS "in moderation" (unless you are very vigilant - which is what this site is about - vigilance, I mean, not consuming HFCS) - because it's used as a preservative in things that don't normally have sugar, like Worcestershire sauce and marinades and rubs. … [Read more...]
No High-Fructose Corn Syrup Additions
October 15, 2009 By 3 Comments
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...]

Swiss Premium Iced Tea
June 1, 2009 By Leave a Comment
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!) … [Read more...]
