i buy nothing that contains HFCS. this, among with other dietary changes and more activity, has allowed me to lose and keep over over 60lb in the last year.
I think US tastes are beginning to change. The real problem is that we have so many poor people for whom "bad" food is comfort and cheap. Real food takes time and money. And it can be hard to find.
I'm off to the only grocery in Memphis I know about that sells Kosher to see if they have Kosher Coke. I drink Coke rarely, but love the old stuff. (I also buy Kosher chicken there. I may be deluded, but I think it tastes better than factory chicken.)
