High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) has been a controversial ingredient in many popular food products, with Heinz Ketchup often
at the center of the debate. As consumers aim to make informed dietary choices, understanding the complexities of HFCS is

HFCS is a corn starch-derived sweetener that is processed to convert glucose into fructose, making it a cheaper and sweeter
alternative to cane sugar. However, its potential health risks, including contributions to obesity and metabolic syndrome, have
sparked concern among health-conscious individuals and the scientific community.
