The effect being that while you might feel satisfied after one 12-oz bottle of sugared soda, even 16-oz of HFCS-sweetened soda won't completely satisfy. I think it's supposed to have something to do with how effectively insulin gets released or something. I wouldn't be surprised if this is at least partially true given that the explosion of obesity correlates with the industry-wide infusion of HFCS as a sugar replacement.

Every time something starts tasting a little off, when I investigate it turns out they've added HFCS to it. Even things that didn't have sugar before, they add this stuff to. Why? It was fine the way it was. Nowadays I buy the brand of whatever that doesn't have HFCS OR sugar added, if I can find one. I don’t like the taste of HFCS in things.
