So a wonderful discovery this week. From now on I'm buying plain chopped tomatoes and onions or tomatoes and chiles and reading the ingredients and then adding my own seasonings.
Lo and behold I find that Stewed tomatoes often have high fructose corn syrup as the second or third ingredient. Why are they so tasty? Oh right...the sugar. I used to eat an entire can as a 'healthy' snack. And I was one of those people that prided myself on knowing where there was added sugar because I have to read so many labels because of allergies.
How did I go wrong?

Christ that has to be aggravating! I used to feel I was surely eating healthy merely by buying things at Trader Joes, or Wholesome Foods or Mothers Market, or even Fresh N Easy. As it turns out they sell crap at every grocery store!
