I've come across this site before and I must say I really like this guy, Dr. Yoni Freedhoff: Weighty Matters

He was on our morning news this morning tearing apart kids Del Monte fruit twists (?) that look like licorice. He broke everything down to show the average viewer that "No sugar added" label is useless and straight out says that the dieticians at Heart and Stroke have no business putting their mark of approval on it because you should not be feeding diabetics sugar. He also shows that it has more sugar than plain old candy licorice.

Here is a quote I like from his site:
Quote:
Firstly the obvious one, can I have some of what the folks over at the Heart and Stroke Foundation's Health Check are smoking because their world certainly seems much kinder and gentler than mine.


Not everything on his page is strictly LC as we would view it but I do really love his views and how he simply writes what he thinks.
