I'm about to rant, so please feel free to pass by if that's not your thing. I was looking in my app for maple syrup this morning, and this featured product popped to the top. IMO, it's everything that's wrong with American food culture in one product. Nothing but corn syrup, HCFS, additives and coloring, so of course only 1/3 the cost of real maple syrup. Happy cartoon character to draw children's attention. I'm sure it's heavily marketed to kids, and I would guess stocked in the grocery stores at child eye-level. Another example of "kid food" that's nutritionally horrifying. Ugh. Maybe it's fun, maybe as a treat, but it's basically liquid candy to be served up as breakfast.

It’s concerning for those who don’t understand food labels to make informed choices!:(

Yuck. Disgusting product. I don't even like cereal, pancakes, sweet breads, doughnuts, etc. Never ate them as a child as my parents didn't serve a lot of processed foods. Not even much bread. We had whole foods.

Looks like Windex. Lol. I have a pretty strict no food-dyes rule with my kids (outside of special occasions, or circumstances we can't control.) - but, my little man is a sucker for things like corn dogs and chicken nuggets, so we just make them at home. I agree with Conscious. I feel it's calculated to some extent.

buenitabishop... I can't even... Morticia & HCB, I'm as disgusted as you are. It literally turned my stomach to look at it. are1981 and Conscious, it's definitely calculated to maximize profits, health be damned. Fritzy, I ate my share of junk as a kid (although I loved raw veggies and hated white bread), but it just seems different now, worse. Maybe I've just become a grumpy old lady.

And Petra -- I'm old enough to remember that at restaurants, they actually charged you for a refill on soda! Which basically meant I never got one, as my parents wouldn't let me

Navywifeski -- indeed! I read recently that most people choose foods based on price, taste, and convenience, not nutrition. My feeling is that I'd rather pay my grocer than pay my doctor

Pretty insane, I’m glad I hate breakfast foods and just eat fruit if I do eat it. I see the captain crunch logo and I know it’s bad for you.

idk all this syrup talk is making me hungry for pancakes. think I'll take my son to the the diner for a special breakfast before I drop him off at his first day of first grade in the morning. no blue syrup but maybe some blueberries ontop would be nice 😀

Otb123, From a parents point of view Yes, special sugar rush! Go ahead and sugar your children up then expect us to teach them anything. Think about it

LivinBreezy my son prefers eggs and bacon on the rare occasion we go to the diner. the pancakes with blueberries on top will be for me and maybe I'll even go alittle crazy and get some whip cream on there too thanks for the parenting advice though much appreciated....

Otb123, I already know you're GREAT with your kids and the food you all have! Yes, I've been around for a while and very supportive. Your camping trips are fun and good food. For now, Please help me and the other parents, teachers to let others know these tasty looking treats are sugar bombs and our children can't/don't/ aren't able to focus while they're at school. Thank you, :-)

Writingwyo Dear Friend :-) I received 31 messages this weekend from parents who don't like that we're removing the rest of the 'sugar' products from the school and none are allowed in! So, I am a little sensitive on the sugar subject, didn't intend to offend anyone. I am so sorry Otb123 I reread what I wrote, not intended to offend.

Just sad the amount of sugar we eat. So if your eating something that is a grain and no fiber or very little you can bet it's not good for you. Even if your seeing fiber you better check and make the sure of the ingredient. Some grains (Cereals) are okay most of them are hot, not many cold cereals are good for your body if you watching the sugar. Which is sad should have to be that way.

I think I understand, LivinBreezy 😊

Well that's just disgusting. 🤢 I can't even imagine how toxic that is. That's exactly why I have a strong belief that toxins they push as food, should come with warning labels!
Look at what has now come to light about Skittles.

I debated whether to say anything, but I feel the need to establish a boundary. Some comments have been deleted because that person crossed the line between expressing disgust with the food industry into expressing disgust with people. I'm not having the debate in my threads as to whether people should be shamed and treated with disdain and ostracized for poor food and fitness choices, because the answer to that question is no.
