Too sweet?

Okay, I was just a tad disturbed by my breakfast banana today. It was tasty and perfectly ripe. However, when I finished eating it, I looked for the sticker on the skin (sometimes, if it's a monkey I still put it on my hand - look everyone, Serena ate a banana!).
Here is what I found...

Now, I am all about the sugar.
But, when they start advertising candy on bananas, I kind of have to wonder if we haven't taken the whole marketing thing a shade too far.
Of course, chances are that my banana was injected with some sort of high fructose corn syrup - or at the very least rolled around in some splenda.
I wonder if I had to eat a banana that was just normal if I might have an allergic reaction - what, no sugar!
Time to go consider this over a coke and a healthy snack of reese's pieces...
