The problem with HFCS is that the corn is genetically modified - and not in any positive way, like to include more nutrients, as GMO advocates proclaim. The corn produces its own pesticides (absolutely impossible in nature), and is made specifically for increased yield production - so that farmers will buy as much of it as they can. This type of corn is not even meant for human consumption, until it is processed into its profitable components- hello HFCS.
GMOs are getting more and more flack as research on animals show significant and irreversible harm to their organs. I avoid corn syrup like the plague because I don't want anything in my body that has been modified in order to increase the profit margin of Monsanto. Read about GMOs and you, too, will be horrified.
