Our farmers produce corn, the farmers' congressmen get all kinds of stuff passed making the agriculture industry more profitable, and it ends up cheaper for American companies to buy American HFCS than foreign sugar. Other countries don't use HFCS even close to as much as we do. So, that's my theory. Besides being crappy for IBS, I've also heard that it REALLY screws with your metabolism, and is a big factor in childhood obesity (more than it's actual calorie value).
