Interesting. I ran across similar info in the Wikipedia article on HFCS: web page

I've also run across articles that claim the US has a high tariff on sugar which is part of why HFCS is a cheaper sweetener - if true, that really annoys me.

The other thing I found interesting in the Wikipedia article was the section on how some soft drink manufacturers still use sugar or are returning to sugar claiming it tastes different from HFCS. I've always insisted - usually to friends who use artificial sweeteners - that sugar has an actual taste.

And I found this: Foods that contain HFCS

It's an interesting list but I notice that some of the commenters are equating corn syrup with high fructose corn syrup and that's a mistake. Corn syrup is mostly glucose and is not a problem for IBSers. It's worth noting, however, that we should all read the labels for corn syrup - apparently some manufacturers are sneaking HFCS into their corn syrup now, too.
