HFCS

[Cj60]

Anyone see that cute little commercial idealizing "corn sugar" as a healthy, all natural food?

Just read this blurb about the ad campaign.

I think they are the same, aside from the fact that obviously they are different. One obvious difference, even if the finished chemical were precisely the same, would be the processing, which will leave behind certain metals or bones or other parts of the equipment used.

Michael, perhaps you are not aware that they are calling high fructose corn syrup "corn sugar" because of all the bad press HFCS has received

 

I would not call cane sugar and "corn sugar" the "same" under any circumstances

I agree Chemar, I would not either, I was going for sarcasm, but missed it I guess, tougher with just the written word.
