Free Sample of New NutraSweet Swirl

I agree Pro. No artificial sweeteners nor high fructose corn syrup for me. It is all just a bunch of chemicals and in the case of hfcs, genetically modified bacteria too. If you don't need it, why eat it? If you have blood sugar issues, use stevia instead. HFCS is the next trans fat; Jones soda just stopped using it and Dannon doesn't use it in the yogurt advertised as all natural. http://www.talkingretail.com/news/6545/Corn-syrup-set-to-become-next-.ehtml 7up said it was ll natural but had to stop because it contains hfcs. Snapple will be next as they claim their products are all natural even the ones that contain hfcs.
 
Re: good call

Good call on the HFCS. My wife and I have been trying to cut it out of our diet - along with all corn syrup-containing products - and it's a bit of a challenge. We're doing it, but it takes a little more research and work on finding healthy alternatives than we first thought.

And here I thought the first response to my rant was going to blast me to kingdom-come. Thanks groove :) It's nice to hear from someone with a health-conscious opinion, IMO :teeth:
 
Well, my gf gave up most hfcs about 6 weeks ago and has lost between 6-8 pounds. Of course, she doesn't drink as much soda, but when we do, we drink Steaz or Blue Sky and they taste better than any coke or pepsi product. We live in Charlotte too, so sweet tea w/good old sugar is always an option too. Not really good for you, but it is way better than hfcs.

Even burker king is going to start using Mott's organic apple sauce in its kids meals. Crazy.
 
I received this in the mail last week. It was perfect timing because I picked up the mail on my way to Taco Bell with my future hubby and the kid at that drive thru window never gave me sugar for my unsweetened iced tea. so i took the 2 free packets and dumped into my drink! :bigok:
 
None of the links ended up working for me :(
And I do try to be careful too with this stuff.. but there are so many things out there that can give us health problems.. which one to start with?
