Manufacturers Are Responding To Consumer Concerns About HFCS

Post by tex »

Hi All,

At least it's a start. Hopefully, with these big-name food manufacturers beginning to phase out the use of HFCS, (High Fructose Corn Syrup), in some of their flagship products, other manufacturers will take note, and follow suit.

It's about dang time. Since I discovered my son is sensitive to corn we have been on the hunt for foods without HFCS - not an easy task but each week I find more and more.

Sure hope that at some point it will be banned. As a caterer it is a constant struggle to find foods w/o that garbage in it.
