Melts in Your Mouth

The other day, I was fixing myself a glass of chocolate milk and I happened to read the back of the chocolate syrup bottle - there isn't even chocolate in it! It's just crappy corn syrup! "Would you like some corn syrup in your milk?" sure doesn't sound appetizing.
Turns out Hershey's has been doing this for a while, to the point where many of their candy bars can't even legally advertise as containing "milk chocolate" anymore. It's all "chocolatey" or "chocolate flavor" or "pasteurized process cheese food."
Lame!
Oh, on an art note, I know I haven't posted anything lately, but I've got something nice in the works. :)

It's often the trend, why make something real and pass the expenses onto us, when you can make it with that crap and get it cheaper.

Corn is subsidized out the yinyang, so it's dirt cheap. That's why it's used in so many foods these days.

Oh yes. As strange as it sounds, the government actually cowers in fear of the powerful corn lobby.

Ick :P I wonder if the choco at the hippie store is legit, but it's likely $$
