:thumbup:

it's  a concentrated solution...and it's in almost all sodas and commercial beverages... That was my reasoning behind it, but you are right: corn sugar is similar to cane sugar.

It's a solution the way you think it is. I think you are implying there is water. Sucrose is a crystalline solid at room temperature due to the glycosidic link between glucose and fructose. Individually, glucose is a solid, fructose is a liquid. HFCS could be viewed as a solution of glucose dissolved in fructose.

I say it's one of the best drugs known to man :yesnod:

High fructose corn syrup is the real enemy here, and is in more things than ever before.
They put that shit in EVERYTHING in processed food.



Don't get me wrong I love sugar, but it's a love/hate relationship because it's easy to let yourself go and I know that if I do it could become a habit and I'd get fat.

Really, I had this "Gelati" from Rita's the other day, and I looked it up online after I had it (cherry w/ vanilla custard, yum), it was roughly 400 calories, but over 100% of the recommended daily value for sugar.

I have no doubt that the average American (and people in other 1st world countries) eats more than the RDV, but how much more? 50% more? double? 2.5x? It can really fuck you up.


To anybody that doesn't think sugar can be addicting - try eating at least 1000 calories a day from added sugar-based deserts such as chocolate, cake, ice cream, etcetera for 2 or 3 days.
You know, so about half of your daily food is sugar-based. After the last day, if you don't have a lot of sugar, you'll feel some really bad cravings setting in.
It takes some fuckin' willpower to resist, and I think it's fair to compare it to crack or an equally addictive drug.

Sugar is addicting. I got in the habit of buying these entemann's cheese Danishes whenever I would go to the grocery store. I have to consciously NOT buy them now - as in I will start to get one and I have to tell myself NO!

High fructose corn syrup and sugar do the same thing to your body, they are both bad for you
