High Fructose Corn Syrup And Ads


i couldn't notice big label on front of bottle of log cabin original syrup announced "no high fructose corn syrup" "no" underlined. i'm not expert on corn syrup except know coca-cola made cane sugar tastes better , less sticky when it's made hfcs (e.g. mexican coke). having noticed bold proclamation on syrup bottle, turned bottle around , looked @ ingredient list. i'm thinking decided make syrup pure cane sugar. hooray! um, no. first ingredient on hfcs free product was...you guessed it. corn syrup!!! um.... :confused: :confused: :confused:

turns out while high fructose corn syrup corn syrup, apparently corn syrup not high fructose corn syrup. hfcs treated enzymes produce fructose , sweeter syrup plain old regular corn syrup. basically, regular stuff isn't sweet enough used in soda, example. me, idea of advertising product isn't using hfcs implies it's getting away "corn" , going refined cane sugar (again, hooray!), nope. means hope you'll think , not examine ingredient list me corn corn corn , don't give flying hoot if has more fructose (fruit sugar) in or not, it's still corn syrup , *not* sucrose (refined cane or beet sugar). cares if syrup more "syrupy" (unlike in coca-cola, example clean finish preferable, imo), apparently becoming new trend in advertising mislead thinking "bad corn syrup" (some studies suggest hfcs in particular can cause obesity since it's more absorbed complex sugars sucrose) being replaced better. in end corn syrup still corn syrup , not 'the real thing.' neither coke made it. it's not real. it's corny. :rolleyes:
 

i curious if non-hfcs log cabin had different caloric content per unit.

i'll take see if grocery store has it.

on advertising, it's shocking how dumb advertisers think are, how dumb are.

@ health food, green labels on means assume it's healthy.

in milk, there controversy because bunch of organic farms wanted "without bgh" , big dairy wanted blocked because implied bad have bgh in milk.

love if food companies have label food standard unit size. when go grocery store, they'll x/ounce, , competing product x/pound. you're doing math see if either side gouging.
