And your digestive system turns *all of it* into Glucose. [Blood sugar]
So what's the big deal?
..how much, how fast.

Wikipedia states that corn syrup is 100% glucose,
while high fructose corn syrup ranges from approximately 55% fructose
and 45% glucose to approximately 42% fructose and 58% glucose.
It also says that table sugar is a disaccharide of glucose and fructose.

"High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) called isoglucose[1] in Europe aand
glucose-fructose in Canada comprises any of a group of corn syrupps
that has undergone enzymatic processing to convert its glucose into
fructose and has then been mixed with pure corn syrup (100% glucose)
to produce a desired sweetness. In the United States, HFCS is
typically used as a sugar substitute and is ubiquitous in processed
foods and beverages, including soft drinks, yogurt, cookies, salad
dressing and tomato soup.[2]
"The most widely used types of high-fructose corn syrup are: HFCS 55
(mostly used in soft drinks), approximately 55% fructose and 45%
glucose; and HFCS 42 (used in many foods and baked goods),
approximately 42% fructose and 58% glucose.[3] HFCS-90, approximately
90% fructose and 10% glucose, is used in small quantities for
specialty applications, but primarily is used to blend with HFCS 42 to
make HFCS 55. [4]"
Table Sugar
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_sugar
Sucrose (common name: table sugar, also called saccharose) is a
disaccharide of glucose and fructose with an α (alpha) 1,2 glycosidic
linkage. The molecular formula of sucrose is C12H22O11. Its systematic
name is β-D-fructofuranosyl-(2â'1)-α-D-glucopyranoside (ending in
"oside", because it's not a reducing sugar). It is best known for its
role in human nutrition and is formed by plants but not by other
organisms including animals.
