Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They make a vegetarian Worcestershire sauce. I'm not sure what's in it, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't have HFCS.

Or, you could order it from the UK. Is there kosher Worcestershire sauce that uses sugar, you know, like kosher Coke?

But, really, that's one of those things that I figure you eat so little of that it's no big deal (unless you can't have HFCS for some reason).

I recently noticed that there is HFCS in Worcestershire sauce. What do you use to substitute for that in recipes? Is it the same as steak sauce?

no, it's not. It's very particular flavor that adds a little something when you use it. I mostly use it when cooking with beef (rarely) or making bloody marys (a little more often)

I use it in the beef (well, faux beef) when I make shepherd's pie.

Ha! Nice one.

It would have to be Passover Worcestershire sauce -- HFCS can be kosher, but not for Passover.

Worcestershire sauce is good in meatloaf, too.

Right. I just remember people in NYC stocking up on Coke at Passover.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Everything has HFCS in it. Bread. Tomato sauce. Salad dressings, ketchup, mayo. Canned beans.

Whenever I see one of those stupid HFCS commercials, I invariably rant about how the real problem with it is that they put in all kinds of stuff that does not need to be sweet. Worcestershire sauce? WTF?

I got crazy for a spot of potato salad last summer, after deli counter hours, and bought one of those little pints of it at the nearby grocery. I took two bites out of, and realized that it was nasty sweet. As in, far sweeter than my favorite chocolate (dark, mind you, but even dark chocolate is supposed to be sweet). I took it back to the grocery store for a refund, and emailed the company that made it. The response I got from the company was that this was how their customers like it, so if I don't, why not try some of their other oh, so, high quality products (which have loads of HFCS). WTF? When did Americans decide that potato salad was a dessert item?

Also, one of the other grocery stores has a Chinese section to its deli counter. Their crab rangoons are off-puttingly sweet. Dessert sweet. Ick.

And I see people from other countries complaining about how sweet American food is, nobody else in the world likes it. Ugh. I don't even like it.
