If one also ignores the fact that it's mainly sugar frosting.

See if Justin's Hazelnut Butter spread is available. Much less sugar, and less palm oil (more actual nuts) and Justin's also a member of RSPO.

It will cost you about an arm and a leg, but it's oh, so good.

Sadly, I don't there's a way to directly link to the product description, which is really silly, but allows you to explore some other things they have. Their Vanilla Almond Butter tastes like cookie dough. In a good way.

(I am also not "Justin", of "Justin's"

The subject was that palm oil involves dead orangutans. Does sugar frosting do that too, or are we changing the subject to how sugar is bad? If you overeat sugar frosting, it's your diabetes, not a negative externality.

Diabetes in a modern technological society with socialized healthcare (and all modern healthcare systems are to some extent socialized) does impose negative externalities.

As do many other diseases. TDR-TB is one of my, um, favorites in this regard: http://www.reddit.com/r/dredmorbius/comments/1wc86m/the_nast...

Well, that's the primary motivation for the purchase, is it not?
