Still No Avoiding Corn, Day Three

I thought I started off the day pretty corn free…but those labels betray me every time.

Who knew there was so much corn syrup in Balance so-called “nutrition” energy bars? No wonder I get so much energy. I’m hopped up on high fructose corn syrup and high maltose corn syrup, which I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of before.

This is proof positive that not everything at Trader Joe’s is actually healthy. The Two Buck Chuck should have clued me in earlier.

Anyway, I folded when I learned I already was tainted by corn today. So I enjoyed milk in my Starbuck’s and orange chicken (surely a product of corn feeding) for supper.

Then there was the excellent mixed berry crisp that Virtual Farm Husband made for me this evening. Next to the grill, he is an excellent dessert and drinkmaster.

Depending on your “King Corn” Corn Challenge rules, this may be considered corn free. But I’m counting the butter and egg since I probably wouldn’t have either if corn wasn’t in my food chain.
