High fructose corn syrup is gross. Makes you fat. So does the crap in diet soda.

They shouldn’t be. He’s still in favor of increasing the ethanol mandate.

I felt better after cutting out soda than I did after I quit my pack-a-day 15 year smoking habit.

I like Coke Zero, but have cut that out due to getting serious about my diabetes. A zero sugar soda usually lasts me two or three days. Any cravings I once had are pretty much gone.

However, the company is mum so far, per the Associated Press.

The headline says the company responded???

HFCS is gross. Disgusting stuff. I avoid it at all costs.

Fresh homemade sweet tea with real cane sugar and lemon is much preferred.

The company responded by expressing its gratitude for Trump’s interest in the product.

A spokesperson for Coca-Cola Co. said details on any offerings would be announced soon. The spokesperson did not elaborate on the statement.

High Fructose Corn Syrup is just sugar. The main thing wrong with it is people consume too much.

The sucrose in soda breaks down into something almost identical to corn syrup as it sits on the shelf. It is all just fructose and glucose.

The High Fructose Corn Syrup you typically see in dry goods like cereal or cookies actually has less fructose than table sugar.
