- Spivak 3y agoWhy are people so weird about corn syrup? If you're fine with other forms of refined sugar you should be fine with corn syrup and vice versa. People make what is essentially corn syrup in the form of invert sugar from sugar cane.
- tekla 3y agoProbably ignorance of chemistry. I always have a fun time when people demonize fructose, and then I point out its completely natural organic fruit sugar. (I mention natural and organic in the colloquial way, not the actual definition)
- dsabanin 3y agoFrom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructolysis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fructolysis: > Unlike glucose, which is directly metabolized widely in the body, fructose is almost entirely metabolized in the liver in humans, where it is directed toward replenishment of liver glycogen and triglyceride synthesis. They are not the same.
- francisofascii 3y agoAgree that corn syrup is not much worse and essentially the same as refined sugar, but they are both bad in large amounts and added everywhere to our foods.
