I guess you've got a point there. I used to be a sugar fiend as well. Typical menu: Snickers and/or Twix candy bars washed down by 2 litre Mountain Dew. I'm lucky to alive.
I wrote up a whole diatribe explaining why... But lets just make it easy CS/HFCS is a monosaccharide which your body pretty much sees as blood sugar. So you're just about mainlining sugar. Cane Sugar is a Disaccharide and needs to be digested a bit before you get the bump from the sugars. In descending order of sweetness; Frutcose, Sucrose, Glucose, Maltose, Maltotroise.
Yeah sorry I left out the bits how you're not liking the overly sweet monosaccharides vs the disaccharides. but no matter. You know you don't like it that's all that matters. The soda and processed food companies will continue to poison the rest of our society that has known nothing else but cs and hfcs.
