I found a video floating around Facebook yesterday and it made me laugh out loud. It is a parody of one of the High Fructose Corn Syrup touting commercials launched by the Corn Refiners Association.

I have to be honest with you…until I became vegan, I didn’t really give much thought to the ingredients in many of the products (especially cosmetic) I used on a regular basis.
