It's a difference in both composition and digestion. There are many questions about differences, that's just one obvious and undeniable one.
No, it's not.
The compounds are the same.
There is no dietary difference between HFCS and any other sugar.
Reading is your friend....
Like I give a crap what you think. Stop derailing the thread with your incessant whining.

"There is, however, some evidence that the body treats HFCS differently than glucose, another common form of sugar. When a person's liver is deciding what to do with glucose, it has several options: use it for energy; convert the glucose into triglycerides or store the glucose as fat. A 2008 study found that fructose seems to go directly to fat [source: Parker-Pope]. The problem may also be more severe with those who are overweight. The study concluded that fructose itself isn't bad -- particularly fructose found in fruits, which are nutrient rich -- but that many people could be better served by limiting fructose consumption and avoiding overeating [source: Parker-Pope]."
And there is the problem - Processed foots use a huge amount of fructose, which is one of the reasons Americans are so fat and end up with so much heart disease.
Sugar is not good, but fructose can be considered, the way it is used in the food industry, as a poison.

Those claiming a 5% (or more) difference doesn't matter aren't thinking about it in the long term. Sure, one soda being 5% more fructose compared to sugar isn't a big deal, but over a lifetime it adds up to a lot more fructose.
That would require some decency and integrity. Something lacking.If anyone has been derailing this thread, it is you. You quoted a single period!--and then when the person you quoted (understandably) wondered what you were doing, you tried to cover up by feigning ignorance and then giving some unconvincing excuse about not needed to quote the whole post. Now you take a sullen, vulgar tone and level accusations at him. You would have done better just to acknowledge what you'd done right away and apologize for causing the misunderstanding.
As to sugar, I like it in all forms. And I could not care less who wants to use how much high-fructose corn syrup in what processed foods. One advantage of fructose is that as compared to sucrose, less needs to be added to cold, acidic drinks like lemonade to make them taste as sweet.
High fructose corn syrup?Something lacking.

Wrong. There's physical and thus physiological difference. You meant to say is there's no nutritional difference.
Beat sugar does not taste that good to me, cane sugar is much better. If I have a choice between beat sugar and corn sugar its really a toss-up on flavor, HOWEVER it is very clear to me that the food science people know very little, though they have for over generation lied and said they did, the body might care.
Or more likely the organisms in our gut might care.
They decide a lot for us.
Their hosts.
Wrong.
Absolutely agree with regards to corn syrup because it's very flavorless.
But you can taste the difference between purified sucrose from Beats and purified sucrose from sugarcane?
Diet concerns more than nutrition. Just because corn syrup is a form of sugar does not make it the same as sugar. There are dietary differences.
Given that I can tell the difference between a 50lb bag of beet sugar and a like quantity of cane sugar from a distance of three feet blind folded...this is proven fact....probably.
Yes, you are wrong. Thanks for acknowledging.
sugar coke tastes better!
Is it really that different? I honestly didn't know.
You are right dietary speaking in the sugars are the same but he's also correct. Fructose is metabolized in the liver where glucose is metabolized in the bloodstream it's often referred to as blood sugar.
You didn't read that did you. Fructose is different than glucose or sucrose.
