It is not known how much corn syrup costed in the 1920's. Today corn syrup cost around 3 dollars.
It spikes up your insulin and can harm your teeth (if not brushed thoroughly). It does give energy but if the energy is not used, it will turn to fat. It may deplete your body of vitamins and minerals as it is a refined sugar.
My guess would be cost. If they're using high fructose corn syrup because cane sugar is too expensive, the same is probably true here.
No. Cane syrup comes from the sugar cane plant, corn syrup comes from the corn plant. All sugars are sugar, but some affect the body differently depending on how quickly they break down in the body, how they are absorbed/utilized by the body, etc. For example, "high fructose corn syrup" has been shown to cause over 50% more belly fat than other sugars, which is why people are supposed to avoid it. On the opposite side of the spectrum, Agave syrup (from a cactus plant) is one of the lowest foods on the glycemic index (which measures how quickly a sugar breaks down in the body and how much that sugar affect (raises) insulin levels). Sugar is all sugar, but different kinds of sugar can act very differently in the body. Hope that answers your question. :)
1984 was when coca-cola made the switch to no sugar cane and all high fructose corn syrup. However this formula varies in different areas of the world. Ex: In the Caribbean they use sugar cane as an ingredient due to the availability and cheapness of it. It is also hypothesized that the switch in America in 1984 helped raise the number of cased of diabetes.
