The most common forms of high fructose corn syrup are HFCS-42 and HFCS-55. HFCS-42 has 42 percent fructose and HFCS-55 has 55 percent fructose, with the remaining sugars being primarily glucose. As a comparison, common table sugar (sucrose) is 50% fructose and 50% glucose. While there are public health problems caused by over consumption of sugar, simply switching to sucrose is not really a solution.
