Our Five Cents - Sugar is back

Several months back we wrote about the growing concern over High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS)?  More to the point, we posed the question - is it a concern for you? 

Likely we have all seen the fairly quirky commercials about HFCS. In these commercials, HFCS is portrayed as natural (made from corn) and part of a healthy diet if consumed in moderation. 

The reason for this post is that I just read an article in the New York Times stating that sugar - the once considered bad boy of sweeteners by dentist and many, many others is back.

From the tomato sauce on a Pizza Hut pie called “The Natural,” to the just-released soda Pepsi Natural, some of the biggest players in the American food business have started, in the last few months, replacing high-fructose corn syrup with old-fashioned sugar. 

ConAgra uses only sugar or honey in its new Healthy Choice All Natural frozen entrees. Kraft Foods recently removed the corn sweetener from its salad dressings, and is working on its Lunchables line of portable meals and snacks.

Sugar’s comeback is not entirely a backlash against the corn sweetener. Market researchers say that with the economy so unsettled, people want to control what they can. Choosing organic, less processed or so-called natural foods is a relatively inexpensive way to do that.

So what do you think?  Is either one the lesser of two evils?  Likely both have a place in the diet as long as that place has boundaries and limits. Too much of a good thing - no matter how sweet tasting it is - is not necessarily a good thing at all.

If you want to buy a car, you will have to receive the business loans. Moreover, my father always takes a bank loan, which supposes to be the most reliable.
