I sure hope they let them watch unlimited daytime TV. Get the full benefits of the North American sloth lifestyle.

The court room shows don't count because they're streetwise education.

My neighbors next door lack the enzymes to digest fructose properly. Makes them very sick. Runs in their family. Anyway Jessie (my neighbor) has been doing some research on fructose... very interesting.

I have to be careful when the kids spend the night. Nothing with fructose... that is worse then a milk allergy.

I actually switched to Powerade in the powder form when I bike ride or x-country ski. It uses Dextrose/Sucralose instead of the high fructose corn syrup. The HFC in liquid Gatorade and Powerade always made me feel bloated when exercising and caused mild stomach upsets. I've actually talked with a couple of doctors about this ingredient and exercise and they have said it's quite hard for the body to digest. Since switching to the powder form, I haven't had any digestive problems during exercise and it's much, much cheaper!

Yeah, true.

I snagged one of these from the Smith's in Logan a few weeks ago.
