I just wish it were nutritionally any good for us.

Corn is:

Liquid Sugar Replacement (worse than sugar)
Starch (higher calorie, difficult to digest)
Cattle Feed (they also can't digest it, leading to gut rott)
Fuel (can't eat fuel)

But I can down several bags of Frito Lays Cornchips. Honey BBQ Twists are the bomb. If they sold those in family or party size I'd probably have fatty liver disease.

Yep basically no nutritional value besides providing glucose. It’s why people in South America whose diet has been mostly corn and corn based products are super short.

(worse than sugar)

Eh, that's not settled science. It's terribly complex and we don't really know.

There's some research that seems to suggest all sugars are really bad for you, even those from fruits.

I'm any case, any added sugar is for sure bad for you.

Added or not, sugar is bad for you. You can get liver disease by eating fruit.

That said, processed sugar is worse because it is more easily taken up by the body and makes the insuline response worse.

Also, processed food is bad for you on top of sugars.

I wasn't even aware of that.
