Jones Soda---BAD COMPANY...

HFCS high fructose corn syrup is responsible for a dangerous epidemic of obesity and diabetes. People under the age of 45 are “children of the corn.” Like Stephen King's thriller, they are reaping the consequences...

FROM WIKI:

Jones Soda announced that the company will launch its 12 ounce canned soda (January 2007) sweetened with pure cane sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup. The brand will be called Jones Pure Cane Soda and will be sold as a 12 ounce can package. As of March 2007, a 12 ounce bottle of Jones Pure Cane Soda Root Beer lists in its ingredients "inverted cane sugar", which seems to mean the same thing as inverted sugar syrup, which, like HFCS, is a mixture of fructose and glucose.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! SORRY EVIL CORPORATE AMERICA! I HAVE TO CALL YOU ON THIS BS!! I don't get involved in thinking that corporations are EVIL but THIS IS..they know EXACTLY what they are doing..marketing this to people who DONT KNOW...what INVERTED CANE SUGAR IS....some people ONLY buy SODA WITHOUT HFCS LIKE ME!

So....Was at the store last night..was buying some REAL CANE root beer from Goose Island RB company(which is YUMMMY)...saw the Jones "neat" packaging that said "REAL CANE SODA"...wow..I said..almost bought a case...picked up a bottle and read more..."INVERTED CANE SUGAR"...WOW WAS I PISSSSED! That is PURE EVIL! I will NEVER BUY JONES SODA NOW!...First because they LIE...Second because its made with the SAME CRAP AS HFCS!
