Well, any sugary drink.
HFCS is 42-55% fructose whereas table sugar (sucrose) is ... 50-50 glucose to fructose. You will still get roughly the same total exposure to fructose (maybe even more) by switching to table sugar.
The only difference is that sucrose has to be broken down into glucose and fructose by sucrase, so the exposure is somewhat smoother instead of hitting you all at once, although humans have more than enough sucrase to make it a pretty quick process.

- arcticbull 2y agoI guess my point was that table sugar breaks down into fructose.
