Real issues? Like overconsumption? Not counting water, the HFCS used
to sweeten baked goods and such is 42& fructose and 58% glucose. Not
counting water, an apple is 40% fructose and 15% glucose.

Issues like how it metabolizes differently from sucrose and how HFCS is
delivering it's fructose/glucose mix in doses far higher than people
would normally consume from fruit.
