Particular about sugar

I am on a quest to rid my life of corn syrup in all of the places that it just doesn't belong. Like spaghetti sauce, salad dressing, or ice cream.  I've gotten to the point that I can taste it in things and it really turns me off.

Anyhoo, I was at my friendly local grocery store and was looking through the cinnamon raison breads and english muffins and the only brand that did not have high fructose corn syrup, corn syrup, or corn syrup solids (whatever those are) was Oroweat. So, go team Oroweat! Keep fighting the good fight.

Oh, and joycebre, after talking to you yesterday, I had to make some mini apple cakes in my little bundt pans.

My dad is allergic to corn. When I was little my mom tried to put the whole family on a corn-(syrup)-free diet. Impossible!

On the other hand, I have very recently discovered what a very little corn syrup can do to cookie texture. Mmm.

My eldest cousin is allergic to wheat and corn. Fortunately she lives on a farm and raises and prepares most of her own food.

This past summer, I made ice cream. The favorite was the mint chip.

Invest in an ice cream maker, you will be much happier.

That sounds good. Reading labels has really turned me off the ice cream. Even Breyers, my go-to brand has been corrupted.
