Dangers of High Fructose Corn Syrup...I knew I wasn't crazy

Yep! It's finally been verified that High Fructose Corn Syrup is bad for our health.  Verified in 2009!  How many consumers, since that time, have ingested this nasty product?  According to the Washington Post, nearly half of the samples tested were found to contain mercury.  In addition the, Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy (IATP), one of our faithful watchdog friends, "found that nearly one in three of 55 brand-name foods contained mercury."  Please go as organic and natural as possible.  If it sounds foreign or processed, stay away from it.
