Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Sorry for the confusion. Yes, high fructose corn syrup. Yummy stuff! I'm tending to avoid all "food" that contains it.
I don't know why people fear HFCS. As far as ketchup and calories, 1 TBS of ketchup only has 19 calories, that's not gonna break anyone's calorie bank.
HFCS has the same ratio of fructose/glucose as honey. I don't see anyone fearing honey (other than the total calories).

HFCS has the same number of calories per teaspoon as table sugar (4 calories per gram) and is equal in sweetness to table sugar.
Sorry to ruin your day, but most of the stuff that you're eating, probably has worse stuff than HFCS. A lot of it, you cannot pronounce. ...
I wasn't aware that the pronounce-ability of an ingredient was correlated to its health benefits. Got a link for that?
Lead = good; oxygen = bad?
mold = good; Quinoa = bad?
What about water? You need it, but too much and you drown?
