I tell ya, I've been ranting about those disgusting "Sweet Surprise" commercials regarding high fructose corn syrup.  They really drive me nutters.  For one thing the line, "it's fine in moderation" really grates on my nerves.  Excuse me, but exactly how does one consume HFCS in moderation when it's in EVERYTHING including MEATS?  Huh?  Come on, tell me oh ye wise Corn Refiners Association.  Seriously, HOW?  It taints every aspect of our food supply in one way or another.  The *only* way to avoid it is to avoid prepared foods, frozen foods, fast food, canned; avoid crackers, breads, cookies, cakes, deli meats, bacon, sausage, need I go on?  It's in EVERYTHING! 

But I had to giggle at Aaron Woolf's satire of those fine upstanding, non-misleading, self-aggrandizing HFCS commercials.

Check it out!

That is a great spoof! love it! We do not have tv of any kind, so I had not seen these until someone else here mentioned them, but then I watched the originals and the spoofs on youtube. yeah, HFCS is fine in moderation, I am sure. unfortunatly, as you pointed out, how can you moderate it, anyway!
