I don't know what it's like in WI, but here in my part of PA there is actually a GROWING assortment of bread that's HFCS free. They use "raisin juice" or molasses instead. Not great, but better for you than HFCS. Here's some rules of thumb:

1. NO WHITE BREAD.

2. NO SQUARE BREAD.

3. 'NATURAL' OR 'WHOLE' ON THE LABEL.


Brown bread shaped kinda like the aerocivic is basically what I look for first, and then check ingredients from there.


Watch out on cereal too! And Peanut Butter!

JIF has a new "natural" peanut butter. It has a little sugar in it and some molasses (to smooth the texture and act as an emulsifier) but it fr'deeking ROCKS as far as natural peanut butter goes. Beats Smucker's Natural nine ways from zero.
