Is it true?

Now that the FDA has officially changed its course and determined that High Fructose Corn Syrup does indeed qualify as “natural” or, rather, that it “would not object to the use of the term ‘natural’ on a product containing the HFCS produced by [a manufacturing process without synthetic fixatives] ,” the corn refiners association is happily proclaiming its “naturalness” every chance they can find. Indeed, they just launched a $30 million advertising campaign aimed at placing HFCS on the same level as sugar and honey.
