In all likely good the article is bullshit, any way to bash Americans.MrTwosheds wrote:Linked from article above.I had always assumed the cause and effect was the other way round...that is was being stupid that made people eat that stuff.The average American eats 35 pounds of high-fructose corn syrup per year, a hazardous ingredient that recent research has linked to a significant decrease in brain function related to both memory and learning. The researchers even go on to say that the ubiquitous substance can make you ‘stupid’. Considering that high fructose corn syrup is present in over 90% of processed food items like sodas and candy, enough so to make up the 35 pound annual figure, it is easy to see that the average American diet is made up of enough HFCS to seriously impact mental capabilities.

Big, easy, targets... Seriously though you should not take it personally, its just science. I can see this will not be popular with the wielders of power though, I believe corn syrup is big business in the US. Change will be resisted, but they can't make you eat it.

One of the biggest American hating institutions I know...
Self deprecaters that feel that the entire population is as conceited and morally bent as they are.

No! It's true! There is a worldwide conspiracy to make fun of America and hurt it's feelings!
This is why we bomb so many people. Raining bombs from the sky is the way America cries.
