The article doesn’t make a distinction between sugar (sucrose) and HFCS. HFCS is the problem, not the sugar, and I’d like to see sugar back in soda, and HFCS out.

From what I understand, you’re right about the enzymes. Apparently enzymes are released by the body to break down the sucrose into fructose and glucose. The enzymes aren’t a part of the conversion of HFCS.

Plus, HFCS is not even cheaper if you take away all our tax money going to support it.

You two are getting bogged down.

This discussion is not about what is good or bad for you. It is a discussion about whether or not your federal government should decide that and enforce its decision at the point of a gun.

Sheesh!
