Default When Chicken isn't just chicken

Okay, so I may be a little slow on some things, but I was dismayed last night shopping at Walmart when I actually looked at the list of ingredients on the RAW CHICKEN!! No, dismayed wasn't the word. Appalled is a much better word!

The raw chicken (and turkey) has a solution injected into it that contains not only sodium and water and potassium benzoatead;fapgfaiudwhgQ (WHATEVER) but it also contained....SUGAR!

SUGAR!!

You have GOT to be kidding me! I went through the meat market checking every package (much to my husband's embarassment I'm sure) and sure enough every package of chicken had some sort of "solution". In fairness, not all of them have sugar.

However, the one single brand I've been having every single day for the last month, has SUGAR! No wonder I've been wanting to binge on that chicken!!! Seriously!

We have to be oh so vigilant anymore. Why on earth would they need to inject raw chicken with sugar?? To keep addicts like me addicted. And, boy did it work!

Maybe we should start a list of products that have sugar where sugar shouldn't be!! That and high fructose corn syrup. Some of you may remember a couple years ago when I discovered that the Unsweetened Iced Tea I was drinking had HFCS in it! I was able to ditch like 7 lbs after I cut that out!!
