humans run on sugar. Everything you eat is broken down and refined for its sugars for the body to use as fuel. They problem with straight sugar of any kind is it requires next to no effort for your body to break down, and that is why your bitch lazy body craves it.

Your body reacts to fructose differently than glucose, so high fructose corn syrup is treated differently by your body than sugar from sources that are heavier on glucose

It has a sickening cloying aftertaste compared with honey or maple sugar. Secondly, it's manufactured through petroleum based processes from heavily subsidized monoculture gmo corn and I refuse to support either of those industries responsible for scorching the earth. Thirdly it's unnecessarily added to almost all processed foods thus contributing to the beetus epidemic among amerilards and now that the major gmo manufacturer has been bought by a pharmaceutical company, you can be sure that will increase slong with other horrors.

Not anymore, now it encourages those living on subsistence farming to migrate to post-industrial nations who must spend more and more on social programs to support their bloating populations.

My biggest problem with HFCS isn't that it's somehow more bad than other sugars, it's that it's in. fucking. everything. I mean it makes sense for it to be in candy and soda, but it's so damn cheap to make they just sweeten everything with it.

OP is actually quoting, word for word, a series of commercials that ran in the United States by the “Corn Refiners Association” back in 2011 that not only pushed for HFCS to be renamed “corn sugar,” but that the public opinion on HFCS was scaremongering and that HFCS is in fact perfectly healthy, natural, and should not be a topic of conversation.

You should check them out on YouTube, just search “Corn Sugar commercial.” They’re the most transparent displays of corporate propaganda I’ve ever seen.

When I realized it was probably a meme started by sugar companies to sell more sugar. People wanted to blame corn syrup for them being overweight either out of ignorance or not wanting to admit they eat too much or drink too much soda. "Made without corn syrup!" foods just replacing the corn syrup with other sweeteners and it still having the same amount of sugar and calories made it seem like a marketing gimmick.

I don't really eat much sugar in general anymore because I find that it makes my skin break out (even though most people are more likely to blame dairy, which I'm fine with) but I don't think there's a huge difference between sweeteners. Unless you start going into zero calorie sweeteners and they come with their own sets of problems.

They are all bad, but HFCS packs more calories in.

Fructose with the flesh of the fruit intact is fine, the fiber helps to move the sugar out of the body. This is why fruit juice is just as bad as soda. You need the flesk of the fruit.

Now they hide the sugarry name to confuse people who read ingredients, like calling it concentrated fruit juice.

Remember that white is bad. White rice, white potatoes (when cut), white bread/tortilla. Almost pure glucose, which also has too much sugar.
