Blueberry Bagel and Peanut Butter


I thought Donuts are bad...

but...

I got cheated! Not by someone... but by something... its this bagel!

Blueberry Bagel - from Carrefour
Otisspunkmeyer BarnStorm BAGELS

It says on the package: You want the freshest possible flavor, with the greatest possible convenience. It's not revolutionary - but it's what we learned from more than 20 years of making our Famous Otis Spunkmeyer Fresh-baked cookies

Our Product delivery squadron of Otis Spunkmeyer Barnstormer keep its flights on schedule - ensuring that only the freshest product is available to you. You'll find that same thinking behind every Otis Spunkmeyer product...from cookies to muffins to bagels. Top flight flabor. Top fligh quality.

Taste the quality in Barnstormin' Bagels TM. They're soft, chewy and loaded with flavor. Great for breakfast or lunch - anytime of day...alone, toasted with jam or cream cheese, or as terrific base for a great sandwich.

Its really very chewy, and the taste of blueberry quite strong, but very artificial.

Nutritional Value per bagel wise: not too bad
Total Fat: 1g Total Carb: 44g of which are Sugars 5g Protein: 8g

not too bad right... until... i ate one... read the ingredients... and realised it contains...

HIGH FRUCTOSE SUGAR SYRUP

geez...

what the hell is HFCS?

Fructose... Maybe Not So Natural...and Not So Safe

High-fructose corn syrup

Bagels can be healthy... look out for whole grain and those without High Fructose Corn Syrup


Bought Peanut butter again... This time round... S - for Smooth

Indeed smoother as compared to the previous chunky version, which i had a hard a very hard time spreading... so end up eating one bite of bread with one teaspoon of the chunky peanut butter.

Yep, high fructose corn syrup is really bad stuff. And because of the size of bagels these days (read monstrous) "they" have said it is healthier to eat a croissant with egg and sausage than a bagel...

Anyway! Welcome to The Foodie Blogroll!
