Sucrose is broken down by certain enzymes, HFCS isn’t. The actions of the enzymes is what matters in this case.

HFCS is nearly identical in composition to table sucrose and both are broken down in the body into Fructose and Glucose in approx 1-1 ratio.

HFCS is not broken down into fructose and glucose by the body.
HFCS is already fructose and glucose, it doesn’t need to be broken down into them.
