Gotta love how sugar is never on the list of things to avoid.

sugar industry pays big money to blame everything else while they dump sugar in EVERYTHING

even bread is sweet

A lot of people I know think that sugar is required to make bread (to activate yeast). Sugar is not at all required.

Anything with a "Foundation" or a "Board of" behind it, seems to get lobbying rights to veto any changes, i.e. to preserve their status quo ;-)

Supposedly too, you used to be able to commission a "research project" and define it's scope nice and narrow, and get just the results you'd like to have published to support the "no change". It does take a lot of money to be able to do this, though.
