High fructose corn syrup is just a sugar. Your opposition to HFCS sounds a little skewed. HFCS is not substantially different to other sugars biological effect and is not really any more or less healthy.
From Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-fructose_corn_syrup_and_health http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-fructose_corn_syrup_and_he...):
> Epidemiological research has suggested that the increase in obesity is linked to increased consumption of sugars and/or calories in general, and not due to any special effect of fructose alone.[1]
If you're worried about "not natural" then meal replacements are not for you (unless you've had your stomach or jaws surgically removed). They are heavily processed and artificial by design.
