[conspire] Sugar in foodstuffs

What is peanut butter?


Next
 time you are at the grocery store, check out the peanut butter.  A 
couple brands list the ingredients as simply peanuts and salt.  Other brands 
have much longer list including malto-something and partially 
hydrogenated whatever.



Now look at the section of the label that 
lists carbohydrates, sugar, fat.   Amazing, the numbers are essentially 
the same.  I certainly don't think they metabolize the same.  



Then
 again, people in China were deliberately putting melamine in food 
because it fooled the standard tests for protein content.
