High fructose corn syrup is a byproduct of corn and is generally cheaper than sugar to put in food. That's why it's everywhere. So to answer your question the U.S grows the most by far.
What is the problem with high concentrations of fructose?
This occurs mostly in high fructose corn syrup, which is the main sweetener in soft drinks (among many other products).

Many physicians and nutritionists now believe that high fructose corn syrup products are the proximate cause of the obesity epidemic and diabetes. (Also, fast foods, especially fried foods, plus candy bars, don't help either.)
