Sucrose and high fructose corn syrup are both sugar compounds that contain about 50% fructose and 50% glucose. The same is true of beet sugar, molasses, and honey. The biggest problem with all these sugars is that the typical American diet contains far too much of them. Perhaps the Corn Refiners' Association statement should be rephrased to say that high fructose corn syrup is as unhealthy as sugar. Hi Victor,
