Not trying to get into war with anyone. But, last summer the Mayo clinic said this, "At this time, there's insufficient evidence to say that high-fructose corn syrup is any less healthy than other types of sweeteners."
With all of the back and forth about coffee, butter, alcohol, and who know what else, I don't put much stock the HFCS scare. I do try to keep my overall sugar intake fairly low. I drink my coffee black, my Coke Diet, and my scotch only with ice and a little water (it's called a Bin Laden).
I use honey, turbinado, and pure maple when I can, but also like Blues Hog Original and Tennessee Red, which both contain HFCS, though it is way down on the ingredient list.
