Another m2m post for you-I think we all have to do this because we can't FB you!!!

Anyway, do your girls eat PB&J?  Have you found a good jelly or alternative that they don't turn their noses up at that doesn't have HFCS?

Also, what about ketchup?  That is a staple here, and I haven't really looked, but would like to find one that doesn't have HFCS-do you know of any decent ones?

Thank you!!!

ketchup, i get trader joe's organic. ingredients = organic tomato puree, organic sugar, salt, white vinegar, organic onion powder, and organic spices.

i hear heinz has a good organic with no HFCS but i havent tried that.

jelly, i use TJs organic raspberry fruit spread (or apricot). i was just trying to type the ingredients but now my kids want to eat it :)

TJs also does an apricot preserves that is really good.

my rasp. jelly has the price on- it's $2.69.  i think that's comparable.

also, if you dont go to TJs, i think polaners is non-HFCS and delish.

i should also add that the organic ketchup is SO MUCH BETTER than the other kind. seriously, it's amazing, and i typically hate ketchup. i cant believe how much better it is.

Thank you, Kelly!! We have a TJ, I just rarely go there because it isn't convenient. But for things like this, I could make a trip now and again-their prices really are so much better than elsewhere.

Yay!!!

did it go out of business? do you not have one at all? that suuuucks. i'd be lost without it. seriously.

well i guess i'd go to whole foods, which is way more $$, and at my WF, you have to PAY for parking. no thanks.

no Trader Joe's in canada. we were regulars in Boston and still miss it all the time.

No whole foods either but our regular grocery store has a pretty decent organics/whole foods section.

but it isn't trader joes.

I don't think ours is as extensive as some-it is pretty small and I have heard some people who have been to them elsewhere say it isn't as good, but I do like it there for some things, and really, our bank is RIGHT next to it. (we belong to Navy Federal, so we have very few branches to our bank, lol)  I am in that area sometimes.  I just need to make the effort to go there.

We have a great big new Whole Paycheck as well, but I don't shop there.  I can NOT believe you have to pay to park at yours!!!!  I think we are getting a Fresh Market or something like that, but I have never been there.

Sonya-I am sorry for you-that stinks!!!!

Supa, if TJ is not an option then find a place to get organic. I shop Tj now for most everything. I buy all snack @tj now because the organic have no HFCs in them.

Kelly, I shop Tj now too for everything. The ingredients are so much better and simple. I have not bought all meat there yet, but may start. Have you had the no pudge brownies yet?

i havent tried the brownies, but it's on my list for my next trip (i'm going on tues). i cant WAIT.
the steak is amazing. look for the black angus beef.  it's seriously so good i cant believe the price.
NO fat whatsoever.
i agree on all the snackfood.  we dont buy snacks anywhere else at this point.
and the cereal prices!? it's like $2 for a box of cereal.
the only stuff i buy anywhere else at this point is stuff like tin foil, wrap, garbage bags, etc.
i love the yogurts too. they are such a great consistency.
i could go on and on :)
