Yep this is a real surprise. Next they are going to say that bonking your head against the wall will give you a headache.
 Alucardbsm rated 25 months ago- What they didn't think of is that as the obesity population rises they consume more sugar. I didn't think so. Fat people make sugar popular, not sugar makes people fat.

- Abstract of a paper showing a parallel rise in obesity with HFCS consumption. Does not show causation (i.e. obesity may be increased otherwise and obese people simply like sweet stuff). Still, neat.
