Another deceptive practice started when they were forced to list ingredients in the order of most to least. Some programs, like WW, tell you to look at the label, and if sugar is fourth on the list, then it is okay to eat.

So....the food industry changed their recipe or in some cases, just changed what they called "sugar" to break it up so it would no longer be the first or second ingredient on the list. They started breaking it down by listing sugar, dextrose, corn syrup, HFCS, brown sugar, molasses and so on, individually, so the total was divided up into smaller quantities and appear farther down the list.

I need to go meditate to get my blood pressure back down!
