The problem is—it’s in everything, so even if you’re eating a non-sweet item, it’s probably sweetened in some fashion with HFCS. Fast food is especially bad about this. French fries can have a coating containing it, even.
Well, you’re right there—sugar shouldn’t be where it’s not expected.
They put it on french fries for browning, I think—they refuse to fry them enough in the factory for some reason, so they wouldn’t brown at all without it.
