I’ve got yet another Evil Thing to Avoid. Crystalline Fructose. Did they think we wouldn’t catch on?

The important info - it contains a minimum of 98% fructose. Yuck. For the straight talk, you can visit the wiki page that lists the rest of the nasty ingredients.

For a laugh, you can visit the Fructose Information Center. (Every time I say that I hear an echo in my head ala ‘Pigs in Space’. Kind of appropriate I think.) They try the same style spiel the CGA tries to pull.

I understand that Snapple Red Tea even has the nerve to list ‘(sugar from fruit)’ after this heinous ingredient. Not to mention that a large number of their other flavors used good old artificial HFCS. Maybe a letter of complaint to the FDA is in order?
