Same here. We don’t shy away from fat, and none of our ingredients have ingredients. It’s pretty amazing how we don’t have to “watch what we eat” anymore. We’ve eliminated processed foods (homemade pizza with fresh mozzarella is so much better than delivery!) and low-fat, fat-free, sugar-free, low-cal “food.”

The high fructose corn syrup chupacabra is the bastard son of man made global warming.

What I’ve cut completely out of my diet in the past 10 years:

1. Beer
2. Wheat snacks of any kind
3. Pancakes and waffles
4. Ice cream, milk
5. Breakfast baked items (rolls, pound cake)
6. Soda (sweet and artificially sweet)

85% of these are out of my diet:

1. Cheese
2. Pizza, pasta
3. Bread and bagels
4. Cookies, cake

Even so, I’m barely at normal weight. Each year something new has to be banned.

Why cut out cheese, they have little or no carbs.

And then you commit suicide because life’s not worth living anymore.

Eating celery has never made anyone fat.

Weight Gain May Be Influenced By Fructose Consumption

Well, duh.

Any food that increases your blood-sugar level like fructose does (wheat actually increases it more) will pile on the pounds. If you want to lose weight, don't eat it.

"Eating celery has never made anyone fat."

Are you certain of that? Cows eating nothing but grass can get very fat and full of cloresteral.

FReepmail me if you want on or off the diabetes ping list.

Check the links in comment# 1: 'When you eat 120 calories of glucose, less than one calorie is stored as fat. 120 calories of fructose results in 40 calories being stored as fat."

Fructose and glucose are processed very differently.

My brother in Law sent me an article about HFCS and it was reflected in this article. I didn't want to believe it at first until I started reading labels more closely. It seems that the more a food is processed the closer to the top of the list is the HFCS. My wife and I began to eliminate it from our diets as much as possible and in the last 6 months I have been working on eliminating flour as well. So much of what you see on grocery store shelves contains one or both of these in copious amounts.

Drive west out of Minneapolis into sugar beet territory and you'll drive by some of the richest farms and wealthiest farmers in the world.
