Corn syrup is not high fructose corn syrup. Corn syrup is nearly 100% glucose while HFCS is somr of the glucose in corn syrup bring modified into fructose. The ration in foods is usually 40% fructose to 60% glucose. Cane and beet sugar (sucrose) is 50:50.

It is the same kind of laziness of not being specific when using the word diabetes, which describes the common symptom of 7 different diseases. Diabetes means siphon, because when the 4 diseases of diabetes insipidus and the 3 main types of diabetes mellitus are uncontrolled there is excessive thirst and urination.
