To summarize: The new government nutritional guidelines do not say, "Sugar is really bad for you. Don't eat sugary foods like sodas, cookies, and pies. They are junk foods that do nothing for you except pack on the pounds and make type II diabetes, hypertension, and hypothyroidism more likely for you."
No, no, the sugary food producing corporations sharply opposed including that information, so naturally the guidelines don't say that.
Oh yah. I really trust PepsiCo and Sara Lee to tell me what healthy food is and what I should eat. Grrrr. I do not think so.
