Karo syrup, which contains high levels of sugar and is sometimes used as a sweetener, is not recommended for use in baby formula because it poses a risk of botulism in infants. Babies under one year old have immature digestive systems that can be vulnerable to harmful bacteria like Clostridium botulinum, which can thrive in sugary environments. Additionally, the syrup does not provide the necessary nutrients that infants need for healthy growth and development. Instead, it's best to use commercially prepared formulas that are specifically designed for infants.

Can you substitute dark Karo syrup for white Karo syrup?

Molasses has a much, much stronger flavour than Karo (Dark Karo, that is, light Karo has a completely different flavour) but other than the taste of the final product, it should not effect the recipe much. Because of the flavour difference, though, I would cut the amount used by at least half, if not more, if I thought the recipe would still be OK.

Is karo corn syrup high fructose corn syrup?

No. high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup are distinctly different products. When Karo was introduced in 1902, it did not contain high fructose corn syrup. Sometime in the 1970's, it was added to the Karo light and pancake syrups. As a result of consumer requests, the high fructose corn syrup has now been removed and all Karo products are high fructose corn syrup free.
