I have been cutting sugar out of my diet for some time now. In doing so I am more inclined to read the ingredients list on many foods I buy. The most surprising place I have found added sugar was in canned peas. Nearly everything in the grocery store has added sugar somewhere. That is quite troubling.

I’ve read that many major pizza chains add sugar to their pizza dough. Why? Sugar can help in the baking process. But studies have shown that kids will eat more pizza when the crust (and sauce) is sweeter.

because corn is so heavily subsidized, the farming industry needs to dump it into as any products as possible.....

I stopped eating canned anything. Peas are much better when purchased frozen in a bag.
