| | Corn syrup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Corn syrup, known as glucose syrup outside Canada and the United States, is a syrup made from corn starch and composed mainly of glucose. | | | High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a newer and sweeter form of corn syrup made from corn starch in an enzymatic process developed in the 1970s. | | | By increasing the proportion of fructose, a syrup is produced which is more comparable to an ordinary sugar (sucrose) syrup in its ratio of fructose to glucose and in its sweetness. |
