Agreed.

It seems that the problem with a lot of the food today is that, in addition to people making bad choices, that you have sugar/high fructose corn syrup in EVERYTHING.

Meaning, that while it 'may' not be bad in moderation, depending on the source you prefer to believe. The fact that it's in bread, condiments, meat, drinks, etc. makes it hard to cut out. Which leads to your insulin levels being peaked out all day, hence diabetes.
