The United States leads in high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) calorie availability at 242.11 kcals per capita per day in 2023, a result of its significant dependency on corn-based sweeteners. Canada follows at 79.39 kcals, with Peru and Switzerland at 29.98 and 26.67 kcals respectively. Year-on-year variations indicate a slight decline in HFCS availability for the United States and Canada. Other countries recorded no notable change in 2023. Over the past five years, the average HFCS availability shows minimal fluctuation across countries, reflecting stable or declining trends in sweetener consumption.
Future trends to watch include:
- Shift towards healthier eating habits and increased awareness of HFCS health implications.
- Potential policy changes and regulations on sugar and sweetener usage.
- Technological advancements in alternative sweeteners could impact HFCS consumption.
- Regional variability in agricultural practices affecting corn production and HFCS availability.
