MORE LIKE THIS, PLEASE: Tyson Foods Is Dropping High-Fructose Corn Syrup.

The Arkansas-based meatpacking giant that owns brands such as Jimmy Dean, Ball Park and Hillshire said it would also stop using the artificial sweetener sucralose, the preservative BHA/BHT and titanium dioxide, a food coloring.

Tyson said the decision was voluntary and follows its previous efforts to reduce sodium, sugars and other food additives. Chief Executive Donnie King said Tyson continuously reviews and assesses its product portfolio to meet the needs of consumers.

Tyson, which processes one-fifth of all chicken, beef and pork sold in the U.S., said its goal was to stop using high-fructose corn syrup and the other ingredients in its U.S. branded products by the end of the year. Tyson products that list the sweetener as an ingredient range from frozen honey battered breast tenders to frozen Jimmy Dean sausage, egg and cheese croissant breakfast sandwiches, according to labels on its products sold at supermarkets.

Yuck.
