Yahoo! News - Study Blames Corn Syrup for Rise of Diabetes in US
While I was kicking rocks in the city impound parking area, waiting for a tow truck driver to happen by, a train passed. The train tracks are the same ones that run past Joyce's house, and I was on the opposite side of them from where she lives, from a "train's direction" standpoint. The wrong side of the tracks is where the impound lot is located. Because of the train's winding path trough the city, or rather the city's winding construction around the tracks, there are a lot of wrong sides, all unique and equally depressing. That train rumbling by was stacked with forest products of unknown kinds (wrapped in plastic), covered with graffiti, and hauled many cars of corn syrup. To give you an idea what that looked like, corn sweetener corn sweetener corn sweetener corn sweetener, repeat six times. You would have to be hopelessly committed to believing ridiculous things not to consider how bad it is that America jacks itself up on processed sugar to get through the day.

If you haven't read the oil we eat, which I pointed to here the other day, here's the link.
