There is no special link between the consumption of high-fructose corn syrup and obesity
USAToday.com recently published an article about a 2004 research paper which suggested "the rise in obesity might be linked to the rise in consumption of high-fructose corn syrup. The paper led to a wave of research and a chorus of popular concern over the cheap, ubiquitous liquid sweetener."

It became nutritional dogma in some circles that sugar was healthy, and high-fructose corn syrup was not."
