This is sort of a full-disclosure post. I have a bit of an axe to grind in this election. Okay, I have several. One issue that has really caught me lately though is sugar subsidies. I made a post on it a couple days ago, and I want to bring it back up. Everywhere I look I see “high fructose corn syrup” used in foods. The exception? Imported foods. Imported foods, made in countries where the prices of sugar aren’t manipulated by the government, tend to actually use real sugar.
That’s why half the soda I’ve drank in the last month has had a “Made in Mexico” label on it and a name I can’t pronounce.
Vote Ron Paul, end the controls on sugar!
