I'd buy beef jerky if it wasn't soaked in corn syrup. I examined every brand, and they all soak it.

Even bread has so much syrup it tastes like cake to me.

I'd buy more chocolate if it was less sweet.

I'm not sure about other brands but I just looked at the bag of Krave jerky I have in front of me and they don't use any corn syrup. Their website [1] confirms it.

Uh, what brands are you looking at? In addition to my sibling who addressed jerky, I generally buy Arnold's/Orowheat bread and it has no corn syrup whatsoever.

The ones at several grocery stores.

I checked all of the brands at the store today. Oberto, Krave, Matador, Golden Island, Jack Links, Tillamook, and World Kitchens all list sugar as the 2nd agreement.

I haven't looked at them in years, evidently they've switched from corn syrup to sugar.
