Challenge
I am going to give up high fructose corn syrup. Or at least I am going to try.
There has been a lot in the news regarding high fructose corn syrup with links to obesity, heart disease, etc. So I figure, what the hell. At least I will become more aware of what is in the food I am eating. High fructose corn syrup just isn't natural.
For those who don't know a lot about high fructose corn syrup, Accidental Hedionist is a pretty good food blog and the author covers the topic pretty well. Listed there is an extensive list of foods that contain high fructose corn syrup.
Though the one flaw in my plan is ketchup. Heinz Ketchup has high fructose corn syrup in it. And I am a gal who loves ketchup. A LOT. I wonder if they make it organic? Or would that make me too weird?

Heinz does make an organic ketchup which tastes far better than their regular stuff. Good luck on your plan!
