I agree that you can avoid hitting the daily sugar thing (and avoid hfcs) by reading ingredients but I don't think many consumers do that. I certainly did not expect it find it in canned tomatoes and I use that in a lot of the recipes I found online. It makes sense why it's in there though if it's acting as a preservative. In fact, I'm going agree with a lot of folks here and just would like to send an end to corn subsidies.
