I have of course no scientific evidence to support what I'm saying, just a nagging feeling. I like to look at food from a paleo viewpoint upon occasion. I'm not saying it's bad or wrong..it's just something to contemplate.

Certain elements that occur naturally in foods are there for a reason. When you take those elements out and put them into other foods, your messing around with the very nature of that foodstuff.

It's not genetic modification, but it's eerily similar.

Few of us ever took the time - or probably even thought - to gnaw on sugar cane or chow down on sugar beets. Yet, we eagerly ate refined sugar. Hmm.
