What is wrong with sugar or corn syrup? You’re using Michelle Obama’s talking points.

Nothing’s wrong by me, as long as people are aware of what they are consuming.

It is said that fructose (HFCS) is absorbed more slowly than sucrose (cane/beet sugar). This allows people to guzzle 20 oz HFCS sodas when they would feel full after 10 oz. of traditionally sugared soda, according to the theory.

I enjoy cranberries immensely, in all forms and knowing it’s a sugar load. Since cranberry has positive value, the type of sugar doesn’t matter to me, but I don’t scorn those who choose to be picky.
