This is my understanding.  Cane sugar is a complex sugar, containing
fructose and glucose.  When the body gets the sweet taste, it
immediately starts producing insulin to "store" the excess sugar.  The
glucose portion goes directly into the blood, and replaces the drop in
blood sugar that would normally accompany an insulin surge maintaining a
normal blood sugar level.  The fructose portion is then stored, either
in muscle, or as fat for later use.  Once the glucose is used up,
insulin levels drop and the stored fructose is converted to fructose and
burned.  If only moderate amounts of sugar are consumed, then virtually
no sugar is converted to fat.

Now with pure or near pure fructose, the body once again produces
insulin, dropping the blood sugar (glucose) level.  But no glucose comes
in, only fructose comes in.  The fructose is stored in muscle tissue,
but is stuck there because of the high insulin levels.  Blood sugar
drops, making you hungry, so you eat and or drink more to try to get the
glucose level back up.  If it is sweet fructose then that only adds to
the problem. Once the level of fructose reaches a saturation level in
the tissues, it starts being stored as fat, which is much more difficult
to access and burn than sugar stored in the muscle.

Thus HFCS converts much more into fat than a mixture of glucose and
fructose, such as honey, or cane sugar.
