Answer 1

Uhhhh ,,, to sell more corn and make more money??

Answer 2

there are no benefits of high fructose corn syrup, what ad did you see?  corn syrup isn't the same as high fructose corn syrup.  and corn farmers don't need the additional business, as they have ethanol in demand now, so i can't imagine it was the corn farmers who put on the ad.
