ketchup - now tie this to the HFCS discussion above
why is hfcs the 3rd and corn syrup the 5th ingredient in ketchup er catsup?
you can make wonderful stuff with no sugar and way more flavor
Since the law came that says you have to list what’s in there, in descending order of volume, sugar has developed many names, each of which can be listed separately. Sucrose, glucose, HFCS, corn syrup, and on and on. If all the things that are metabolized like sugar were listed as one item, it would come in first way more often on the labels.
