Labels, Labels Everywhere...and Not a Drop to Eat

Once you start reading labels, you realize why you never did. There is definitely truth in the saying ignorance is bliss. Unfortunately, when it comes to food, ignorance can be blissfully dangerous. I casually grabbed the Worcestershire sauce to add to my venison & beef for burgers, but my new foodie instincts kicked in so I checked the label. Guess what? High fructose corn syrup! It really is in everything. Needless to say, I opted for making my own sauce, using some balsamic vinegar as a base. Still a bit of a bummer, as they add sodium bisulfate to protect the color, but a better alternative at this part in my journey.
