Is There a Category Four of Sugar?
Stephen Colbert: My dad worked for DuPont and as a chemist- You put pain on your cereal? He was always defending the idea that just because something has a really long chemical name doesn't necessarily mean it didn't exist in nature or it's bad for you. We now know that this is bad.

They point out that mother nature does not make any food that is sweet and fatty at the same time.
