The Corn Refiners Association wants high-fructose corn syrup to be known instead as "corn sugar."
Yeah, now that people are catching on to the coincidence that the OH NOES OBESITY CRISIS!!! started around the same time that HFCS was introduced into virtually every food or beverage product USians consume, and researchers have found that HFCS prompts considerably more weight gain than table sugar, and people are starting to look for HFCS-free foods, I bet the Corn Refiners Association sure does want a new name on the label.
Unfortunately, it's still the same shitty product.
