I don't know why glucose-fructose syrup wouldn't be called HFCS if they are the same thing. This originally came up - at least the first time I saw it - in a post about European rice krispies. At the time, the thinking seemed to be that glucose-fructose syrup might be a European name for HFCS or something as bad as it. Once I saw it was in Gatorade, I didn't know what to think so I'm seeking enlightment from the wizards of the Boards.
HFCS is 55 percent fructose and 45 percent glucose, according to an article in Heather's Research Library, which is part of what made me wonder if glucose-fructose syrup is similar to HFCS.
Quote: is an ingredient IIRC
I don't know what IIRC means and I couldn't find it in the acronym list. Sorry - clarify?
