Ironically, it has turned out that fructose (corn syrup) is /the/ main culprit in the obesity epidemic because the human metabolic system isn't equipped to metabolize it -- it turns it into fat. Sugar isn't exactly innocent, but unless you become excessive in the amounts you consume, it's nowhere near the same problem.
