HA! Don't get me started on food companies. They use HFCS for the same reason that they use partially hydrogenated oils in ALOT of foods. It is a CHEAP way to sweeten, or in the case of PHO, preserve foods. They can make less of them, extend the shelf life and charge higher prices. They could CARE LESS about people with medical issues. It is the same with drug companies(seriously, but that is an ENTIRE other topic). They are out to MAKE MONEY for themselves.....you should avoid buying anything w/HFCS and PHO's....they are SO BAD for your body for SO MANY reasons. Buy purchasing products that do not have these items in them....and they are out there....HOPEFULLY it will force some of these companies to eventually change their ingredients. I know that the PHO thing has been an issue for awhile and there are now things on the shelves that say "no trans fats" but you still have to read the ingredients. Sometimes they sneak it in there......
