I thought the DemocRATS were blaming obesity on “climate change”. Like chipmunks, people were storing fat for the upcoming, severe global warming winter and ice age.

Google “Robert Lustig” on the subject of fructose, along with his YouTube speeches.

Fructose, which some people blame for the obesity epidemic and its related health crises (SN: 6/1/13, p. 22), shows up in high-fructose corn syrup and in table sugar, or sucrose.

He really wrote this? Fructose shows up in Sucrose?

And this guy is a science writer?

People drank soda since it was invented but after the switch from real sugar to corn syrup, bad things seemed to happen.

Sugar tasted better too.
