High fructose corn syrup (hfcs)

High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is a sweetener derived from corn. Unlike the traditional type of corn syrup (which is mainly glucose), HFCS is a mixture of glucose and fructose. The mixture we use in our soft drinks is very similar to liquid sucrose (sugar) and is composed of approximately half glucose (45%) and fructose (55%).
