High Fructose Corn Syrup Seeks a Makeover

Slashfood reports High Fructose Corn Syrup Seeks a Makeover. "Dogged by a growing image problem that has linked high fructose corn syrup (in the public mind) with everything from obesity to diabetes, the Corn Refiners Association has come up with a smart solution (or sneaky, depending on your point of view): change the name. According to the Associated Press, the association is applying to the federal government to approve 'corn sugar' as an alternative name on food labels."

Ridiculous.
