We had some nice salty pretzels that slyly contained corn syrup! Who would have thought? We also found it listed on the wrapper of our english muffins. (We tried to convince ourselves that the corn syrup actually was an ingredient in the wrapper, not the muffin.) So, now we are even more avid readers of food labels. It is cutting down on all those classic works of literature we have been meaning to read...
Tom had one major - and a couple of minor - sugar incidents. Twice this week, he had hamburgers with catsup on them. He knew that the catsup would have corn syrup, but he kept eating anyways. It was very minor, but he could not bear to not blog it. The major incident was an ambush at a restaurant. He ordered what would seem to be a safe lunch, an open-faced turkey sandwich smothered with gravy. But, he told me that the gravy was sweet instead of savory, prompting him to think it was laced with sugar...or corn syrup...
That stuff is everywhere! Look out, sweet friends!
