And with the Price of Sugar Going Through the F-ing Roof...

While we're embedding video, the ad wizards over at the Corn Refiners Association have apparently put out a couple of totally awesome old-school advertisements for everyone's favorite sweetener:

err... well, damn I can't get the embedding code to copy-and-paste correctly, so go watch this:

I assume this ad is real - it could just be a straw man, though, I suppose. High Fructose Corn Syrup is bad. I'm not going to rant about it (plenty of that over there on the youtube), but it is.

For the record;
These commercials ARE actually real - they're real, actually! I saw the Popsicle [spell-check made me capitalize that word. I always thought it was a generic term (though I've always called 'tissues' just that, regardless of whether they happened to be Kleenex brand [kleenex was recognized by spell-check, as I capitalized it])] version live on network TV (which will go all-digital this February) and was blown away!
