I think some of us have heard, and have some basic sentiment in mind, that high fructose corn syrup is bad for us. What many of us might not appreciate is why HFCS is seen as so much worse than sugar. While 'stumbling' (http://www.stumbleupon.com) around the web today, I happened across a good article of "Why Soft Drinks Contribute to Obesity". (http://www.naturalnews.com/024046.html) In the past, my basic thought was that beverages, in general, were not particularly filling and that it was natural that if a beverage meant a lot of calories, but didn't fill you up, the end result would be that you naturally go out and consume more to satiate your appetite.

This is where HFCS pops up as extra specially bad. Apparently, fructose will contribute glucose in the same way as sucrose but the body does not fully recognize it as it does sucrose and, as such, you are not satiated by it. Scary stuff!
