LOL!!!!

The government wants to regulate the bacteria in this woman's ice cream because it's worried about our 'health and safety.' But then they subsidize corn and high fructose corn syrup. They allow twinkies, cheese poofs, and soda to flood the market.

So, government...you are only concerned with the safety of food with regards to BACTERIA? What about all the other reasons food can be bad for you? Oh, no...that's not important. Heart disease, diabetes, and cancer are not NEARLY as horrible as a case of the runs.

If you can call 'regulating food' merely putting the nutritional (or non-nutritional) facts on the label...have this lady put on HER label - "Hey, this is real food. You might could get sick from it because it's not chock-ablock full of preservatives and plastic."

It was you that claimed strawberry syrup contains corn syrup. So prove that.
Just a quick check on google tells me that there are plenty of options. Syrup with white sugar, sugar-free, with stevia etc.

What percentage of Strawberry syrup in the USA is free from corn syrup?

Should be easy enough for you to find out.

Last month, in Oregon, deer allegedly pooped in a strawberry farm. The strawberries were then sold at roadside stands. The results were an e.coli outbreak that sickened at leat ten and resulted in the death of an elderly woman from kidney failure.
