    Absolutely agree on banning high fructose corn syrup. The stuff is awful. I recall a documentary from years back covering the discover and sale of HFCS , it was kind of a tongue in cheek, 60’s , Wes Anderson-ish movie. Couldn’t find that one but did find this article & have a slew of new Health movies to watch. https://www.vogue.in/content/10-health-documentaries-on-netflix-that-will-make-you-rethink-what-you-eat

      Honest question… just about everything I’ve read regarding why HFCS is bad is really just about the dangers of consuming sugar in general. Is there something that shows it’s worse than sugar?

      I totally agree that we eat way too much sugar in America, and I’m all for reducing. I just wonder if any efforts to this end should be focused on ALL sources of sugar, not just HFCS.
