Where are you finding many options in products without HFCS or additives?

Even the much-higher-end supermarkets near me don't have meaningful alternatives for a lot of products where I am, and I'm in a HCOL area.

I've not yet been unable to find something without corn syrup (I don't feel that "high fructose" or not changes how much of a filler it is), but it can be a pain in the ass to read the ingredients on everything on the shelf.

If I were FDA dictator for a day, I'd requite a corn logo on anything with corn syrup, and crossed corn for anything with HFCS.

Now calorie inflation can be done with sugar, too - the real deal is to have things that aren't "diabetes inducing sweet".

What sort of products are you looking for?

I read the ingredients on everything (I'm a vegetarian) and I don't buy anything with corn syrup or sugar that isn't a once-in-a-while treat.
