My wife also reads labels. She's a label reader. Especially if it's an item I've snuck into the shopping cart. She knows if I've put an item in the cart, even if she's not looking. Women just know these things. She's prejudiced against High Fructose Corn Sugar for some reason. So I've learned to find similar items that have cane sugar and make it seem like there's a choice.

If y'all had EU standards in place, you could do away with that damn Corn Syrup, which seems to be in everything.

I sold the first CGC book ever on eBay and all I got was this stinking title.

A very good rule to follow is if an eight year old can't pronounce the name of the ingredient, you shouldn't eat it.

Do you have the right to know? Should there be full disclosure? I suspect my panini has been pressed and trimmed. If it's not disclosed, it's probably been hosed....with ammonia. I see a new fad in soft serve...
