I'm sitting here at work reading my Consumer Reports (we get it because there is a lot of good stuff in there about our industry) and it is talking about how sugars hide under many names on food labels.  Here are some they mention....


Corn syrup
Crystalline fructose
Dextrose
Fructose
Fruit-juice concentrates
Glucose
High-fructose Corn Syrup
High-maltose corn syrup
Honey lactose
Lactose
Maltose
Molasses
Sucrose
Syrup


Watch your labels to make sure you aren't getting all that added sugar you don't need.  :)
