This site say's French's has no HFCS

I am amused by the listing of two Karo's syrups (Dark and Brown Sugar). Is the Dark syrup more molasses-y?

I think there are more than two.

ETA: I think it was when I lived with msbelle's brother that he would bring a certain kind up from Texas that you couldn't get in NY.

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?

sits next to Andi, gives her some homemade potato salad.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Now I'm craving ensalada rusa (potato salad with tuna, peas and pimientos).

I want deviled eggs.

I just looked up recipes for deviled eggs, and the recipe called for 12 eggs but said the yield was 12 deviled eggs. Wouldn't it be 24 deviled eggs, or are the two halves considered one egg?

I would agree that 12 eggs make 24 deviled eggs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My guess is that deviled eggs are so nummy, the recipe assumes that the person making them will end up eating half the deviled eggs before finishing.

Hee. I love the buffistas and how one little comment can cause such an interesting, long discussion.

Thanks. I bookmarked that site for future reference.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I just checked the jar of Prego I bought at lunch today and...

No corn syrup.

Actually, for a thing in a jar its not bad at all:

Tomato puree (water, tomato paste), diced tomatoes in tomato juice, sugar, vegetable oil (corn and/or cottonseed and/or canola), salt, onion powder, spices, (basil, oregano, spice), dehydrated garlic, citric acid, dehydrated parsley and flavoring

The good people at Campbells really seem to have controlled themselves on this one. I can live with citric acid as a perservative and the "flavoring" at the end is distressingly ambiguous, but it's the eleventh item so I'm not overly concerned.
