> (3) Not more than 35 percent of its total weight shall be composed of sugar, including naturally occurring and added sugar. This paragraph shall not apply to fruits, vegetables that have not been deep fried, or a dried fruit and nut and seed combination.

wonder who'll be the first to argue that HFCS isn't sugar.



Take your pick, could be either one of: Coca Cola, PepsiCo, Red Bull, Ferrero, Kellogg, Kraft Heinz just to name a few.

That aside, I think the law is a great step in the right direction for the US.

Hopefully it can be expanded across the US.


Unless HCFS is magically not composed of sucrose/fructose, which are sugars, what arguments can they raise?
