Next they need to go after HFCS vs real sugar.
But the corn industry is too powerful.
If they end corn subsidies, the food manufacturers will return to real sugar. Right now the US taxpayers literally pay companies to put HFCS into our food...
YES!!! I cringe every time I pick up an item, be it drink or cereal, while grocery shopping and see that crap. Why does it even exist???
Corn subsidies make it cheap to grow. Food stamps provide the secondary subsidy for the junk.
Trans fats ( Crisco) were originally developed as a lubricant for mechanical parts used in heavy industry. Our bodies did not evolve digesting these fats, unlike natural fats, so it merely stores them in the liver.
That's why the guys liver was so messed up in " supersize me"
*Sigh* No, the gub-ment doesn't need to "go after" anything. As a matter of fact, Obama and his FDA can keep their beaks out of our lives and our refrigerators, and worry about what he gets when he makes his frequent Burger Shack runs--where the staff are now under orders not to divulge his (and Michelle's) hankerings.
I AGREE WITH YOU!!!!!!!

I always got chided because I bought the box of Lard and not the box of Crisco.
Cigarettes, poisonous and addictive pharmaceuticals and alcohol are fine but don't eat that trans fat! It will kill you!
