Anything you have to back that up. I'm not calling you out or anything, it just sort of seems like that's kind of one of those internet things that gets repeated, but no one really knows where it came from.

The whole thing about x% of calories getting converted to fat is BS. Your body obeys the rules of thermodynamics. All excess calories you consume are converted to fat.
There is some evidence to suggest that HFCS encourages overeating because it produces the endorphin effects of eating sweet foods but does not produce the appettite supressing effects. The theory is that HFCS does not produce an insulin response like other sugars. The science on this is still up in the air though.
