    It as absorbed by the body in the same way as sugar; it's marketing. Sure, corn syrup can make people fat...but that's because it happens to the the sweetener used in twinkies (since when was cake a "snack?") and fruit snacks and hostess products. Having 20 of Grandma's all natural, REAL sugar cookies would be just as bad, but they don't get the blame because the stuff people DO overeat happens to have corn syrup in it. Fructose (in corn syrup) and sucrose (table sugar) are pretty darn similar.
