But I sure did after you pointed it out... Too bad they didn't do the same in the next picture, there could have been before and after pics to see if there had been shrinkage from the roids.

I had noticed that I would get terrible acid reflux after drinking a single can of soda, far worse than anything I ever got from greasy, spicy food. I had been on medication for the acid reflux, but ran out on my prescription and was between health insurance providers after taking a new job. The effect was immediate, the first HFCS-free day was also my first reflux-free day. I haven't had a serious issue with reflux since, and have completely eliminated any need for medication.

Fortunately, some companies are becoming more aware. I was glad to see the Pepsi Throwback back on the shelf a couple of weeks ago (and since some of you guys are in MI I can say "Please, Vernors! Go back to sugar!"), and Log Cabin syrup no longer has HFCS. This is good, as my nine-year-old goes through gallons of the stuff. Shame on Gerber! Fortunately, some companies are becoming more aware.

None of that syrupy after taste! High fructose corn syrup is the reason I switched from Arizona to Peace Iced Tea. None of that syrupy after taste!
