CORN SYRUP!.!. it's in almost everything! why!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
My guess is that you are talking about High Fructose Corn Syrup!.
HFCS is a synthetic sweetener made from hydrolyzed corn starch that is cheaper and far more soluble than sugar!.
It is used extensively in commercial products for several reasons!. HFCS inhibits microbial spoilage by reducing water activity and extends shelf life through moisture control!. It also helps to maintain texture and resists crystallization after baking, along with being more stable than sugar through temperature changes, and has a better compatibility with yeast for baked goods!.
