Sad that consumers

care more about a slightly louder crinkling bag than they do the overall impact of consuming the process food from and then disposing of the packaging. Not that it stops me from eating chips from a bag; I just buy the full size bag and parse out a serving into my lunchware.
I'm glad

to hear that there are schools taking steps to promote greener living! Around here, we have some schools that have small farm plots and woodlands set aside for them that allow city kids to learn about farming, sustainable agriculture, and healthy living, but I hope we see more schools adopt the approach to actual diets as well. Especially with the rise in obesity and diabetes.
I wonder if this holds true

I wonder if this holds true for "Golden Syrup," the version used elsewhere in the world? Since golden syrup is made from cane sugar, would it spoil, or would it remain stable?
