"CornS" news and stories

Is anyone else fascinated by the new campaign to change the public opinion of high fructose corn syrup?

I live in a high fructose corn syrup free household and while I've read that that high fructose corn syrup is essentially the same thing as sugar, I do find it hard to buy into the the "naturalness" of it - especially after seeing King Corn.

The image of a friend offering a popsicle with high fructose corn syrup and being treated like a drug pusher could have been taken straight out of my life. Although, at this point, our friends know better than to even offer.

What are your thoughts on high fructose corn syrup? Did the commercial and the associated web site, Sweet Surprise, change your behavior towards the sweetener?
