Hope this study wasn't cobbled together.

Except the taste.

Which, in the event I drink a coke (whatever flavor, dr. pepper, pepsi, coke, RC, etc), then I want it to taste good.

HFCS doesn’t.

First, sucrose is 50% fructose and 50% glucose. Second, the HFCS used in most food is either HFCS 55 (55% fructose, 45% glucose) or HFCS 42 (42% fructose, 58% glucose). That tiny 5% fructose in the HFCS 55 foods as part of the total sugar intake isn't going to make any difference. And if the foods one eats using HFCS is split evenly between the 55 and 42, then one is actually eating less fructose than if he uses straight sucrose.

These are the same kind of people who worked for the tobacco companies who said that smoking wasn’t bad for you. Don’t believe any “study” from a group that is making hundreds of millions of dollars on the product they are supporting.

I don’t believe this.
For one thing they taste different.
Second, the enzymes and chemical processes involved are different.
