If you recall Lord Tennyson’s poem "The Lady of Shalott,” you know that it’s about a woman who is confined to a tower, and if she dares to look out the window, she will die from a curse. She only sees the real world reflected in a mirror, until Sir Lancelot wanders by. Kate Beaton at Hark! A Vagrant reimagines that story in a more realistic way. It’s a little gross, but altogether too funny not to share. Read the whole story here.

But it also risk being penny wise and pound foolish. There isn't much need to worry about a small amount of sugar added to canned food (it is there often as a preservative, to cut down on the amount salt used as more people watch sodium intake). Or worrying about if a small amount of sugar was added to your mixed drink, when the alcohol probably has far more calories in it. And at the same time, I've know a couple people who drink so much juice, they are drinking more sugar daily than I got from soda as a teenager. Or some who eat large amounts of pasta and bread without much else balance things out or help cut back proportions.
