Read this last week and found it interesting:
"High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a nutritive sweetener similar to table sugar (sucrose). It's used by the food industry because of it's many qualities, including stability, broad functionability and abundant raw material in the (USA) Midwest. As a rise in obesity coincided with it's introduction, some people believed it must be the cause. But HFCS was soon shown to have no means of causing obesity that sucrose doesn't have, and their calories are the same. If it were removed from the market, consumers would simply find products more expensive." |
