    A very informative picture.

    Well it would be better if the total or available carbohydrate was listed for both. As it stands it makes corn look like a health food!

    After deduction of fibre (using Nutrition Data), I make that 264.6 g of corn carbs!! For the can of Pepsi presumably the sugars are the carbs.

    Cheers,

    Malcolm

    Hi Malcolm,

    If I were going strictly on carbohydrate content, rather than glucose + fructose (HFCS), you’d be right – the picture however is how much corn is needed for an equivalent load of glucose + fructose that is used to sweeten the soda.
