HFCS

In my effort to remove (almost) all things unhealthy from my family's diet, I have been doing some serious research for what to eat and not eat. Of course, high fructose corn syrup has come up. I have already been reading labels and avoiding it in almost all of my food choices because of sites like below.

But, seriously, come on.......
I am running out of energy and getting a bit tired from making all my food from scratch to avoid such items. So, if anyone has any food choices that they love that does not contain high fructose corn syrup (or BHT, or Red Dye #40, or other bad things) please please please leave me a comment.

I know am so blessed that I can stay home and I have the opportunity to make our food from scratch, but I would love to find some easier quick snacks that I can throw in my purse for my daughter and myself when we are out and about.


(and if by chance you do have some corn syrup in your pantry, don't just toss it out, use it to entertain the kiddos)
