     @Nudhul @PurpCat Fructose is just fruit sugar, so it is not haram.
     
     High Fructose Corn Syrup is haram, so "Kosher coke a cola" contains fructose instead of HFCS and skittles "Kosher skittles" contains glucose syrup and maltodextrin instead of HFCS.

     @PurpCat Fructose is fruit sugar, so I'm not sure if any country bans it.
     
     It seems possible that HFCS could banned in some countries, but I'm not aware of any where it is.

     @Suiseiseki @PurpCat why is HFCS haram if F and C and S aren't? is it just the added sugars to regular corn syrup?
