Can you think of a more delicious combination that bourbon and burgers? Neither could the folks behind Louisville’s Sidebar, an upscale bar and burger joint located in the historic Whiskey Row Lofts. The restaurant features 16-foot ceilings and windows that are almost as tall, and its completely limestone building dates all the way back to 1877.

Behind the sleek, glittering bar, skilled bartenders pour fine bourbon and other spirits to create handcrafted cocktails like the zesty Kentucky Maid and the rye whiskey-filled Good Word. Sidebar also serves a wide range of bottled and draft beers, from your basic PBR all the way up to the Weihenstephan Hefe-Weissbier. The food menu includes burgers made with the restaurant’s signature blend of Angus beef, New York strip steak, chuck roast, and short rib, as well as appetizers like nachos and the must-try Sidebar Fondue.

While you might suspect that packaged foods like sodas and candies contain high fructose corn syrup, this processed ingredient actually lurks in many places that you wouldn’t expect. Here are a few surprising sources of high fructose corn syrup that you should avoid if you’re trying to eat healthfully.

1. Yogurt. While most people consider yogurt a healthy food, when it’s packed with sticky sweet high fructose corn syrup, it’s a whole different story. Many flavored yogurts in the grocery store contain the sweetener to give them their fruity flavors, and even a large number of low-fat and fat-free yogurts are filled with it.
2. Salad dressings. No matter how healthy you think your salad dressing may be, its positive traits don’t matter if it’s filled with high fructose corn syrup. If possible, making your own salad dressing is a surefire way to know exactly which ingredients are used.
3. Breads. Even if you avoid all of the sweet, dessert-style baked goods at the grocery store, high fructose corn syrup may be sneaking into your diet through your plain old bread. Even breads made with wheat and whole grain often contain the syrup, so be sure to check the ingredient list before you make your purchase.
