Finally. HFCS is a nightmare, I hope this is the beginning of the end. Farmers wind up growing trash GMO monocrops for ethanol subsidies and syrup money, depleting the soil and sterilizing the land. HFCS is a direct cause of diabetes, it has a different breakdown path than other sweeteners, it spikes blood sugar. HFCS is so "sweet" it overstimulates the taste buds and ruins the sense of taste, people get no statisfaction and are trained into gluttony.

Gonna go make a highball to celebrate, with some of the last Mexican Coke I might ever have to buy....

Cain sugar is not much different. The only way to reduce the amount of sugar would be a sugar tax. Multiple countries implemented it and in all of them the sugar content dropped rapidly. Long term health benefits are not yet seen die the fact that the taxation started only a few years ago.
