That Thomas' English Muffins are now made without High Fructose Corn Syrup.

HFCS is in all kinds of breads...most store breads.

Actually, HFCS is in the vast majority of items in a food store.

just checked my bagles from trader joe's - no HFCS!

and the best part of the english muffin is the top side nooks and crannies filled with butter.

MESA! :thud:
There's a difference? Really? As long as it's good & crispy, I don't care. Don't give me no half-cooked bacon, and don't give me no half-toasted English muffin.

I think I like the tops better as they typically are crunchier.

They taste different to me. I like the bottoms. They have those little white things on them...maybe that makes them taste different. Dunno. :?

The top is thinner and has a smaller diameter then the bottom

true...but I've never noticed a difference in taste...but I guess I'm with abomb...the top (because of said thinner-ness) does get a little crunchier. I'll vote top.

Schutd, can you PM me a chili (with beans) recipe. And perhaps a "red chili and/or green chili one.

Thanks.

be sure to buy some bread flour; not just regular flour. Bread flour has more gluten & will give you that chewy texture that an English muffin must have...

Thanks for the tip. I am going to pick some up soon and give this a shot. :)
