Mom #1: Excuse me?
Mom #2: Uh, that has high-fructose corn syrup in it.
Mom #1: [ incredulous ] And?
Mom #2: Well, you know the things they say about high-fructose corn syrup. [ she laughs ]
Mom #1: Like what?
Mom #2: Well… um…
Mom #1: That it’s made from corn, and it’s natural enough and like sugar and it’s fine in moderation?

Daughter: Mommy! Could I have some more juicy drink?
Mom #1: Of course, you can!
