This week’s assignment, if you choose to accept it, is to not eat or purchase anything containing High Fructose Corn Syrup.
How do you know if it contains HFCS? You simply read the label and look for “High Fructose Corn Syrup”.

If you’re not sure if there’s HFCS in the food you want to eat, avoid that food.
Here’s a list of some foods that often contain HFCS:
- Ketchup
- Mayonaise
- Salad dressing
- Soft drinks
- Juice drinks
- Health/energy bars
- Breakfast cereals
- Sandwiches
- Foods for sale in a gas station or convenience store
- Yogurt
- Bread
- Cough Syrup
- Crackers
- Frozen Foods
- Peanut Butter
- Jams, Jellies and Syrup
- Pasta Sauce
- All kinds of snacks
From now until next Monday, avoid HFCS!

I realized I had a sugar problem back in 2003 after a weekend-long binge on raw chocolate chip cookie dough and chocolate covered pretzels. As a result, I began trying to quit sugar but kept failing. Finally, I figured out a way to stay off sweet junk food for good.
Don’t quit sugar. Stop Being Sweet instead! Questions? Please ask!
