Sugars!

Imagine a four lane road, two lanes each way, but no little dotted lines, no passing lanes, and no laws. People seem to think it is a good idea to go REALLY slow about 2 or 3 cars abreast and block one whole side of the road. Now imagine this road at rush hour. This is the bike path that I have to bike every day. Only it all bikes, and there are people who think it is a good idea to walk in the middle of the bike path. So much chaos. One day I WILL run someone over-- on purpose.

I learned that carbs are just as bad for your teeth as sugar because the icky sugar bugs on your teeth are able to digest the carbs into sugars. so rinse out your mouth after you eat a cracker. but tea, coffee, and chocolate might actually have things that help with tooth decay

And xylitol, a sugar subsitute, actually helps prevent cavities and can repair minor tooth decay. Gum companies used to use it, but not so much anymore, and when they do use it, it is along with other surgar subsitutes that are not so good.

Saccharine is a completely synthetic sugar substitute that was banned for a while for being a possible carcinogen, and it is still banned in europe and canada but in 2000 the US decided that it was not "officially" a carginogen.

While cyclamates was falsely accused of being a carcenogen due to politics and it is still banned from use.

splenda is gross

Sugar in the Raw can't legally be called raw sugar because it is white sugar with molasses added.

It's healthy to Fletcherize your food.
