There is no proof that this happens in humans. However, you probably shouldn't feed your rats massive quantities of HFCS sweetened water.

I should revise it to say that all food that contributes to caloric needs of the body have a final common pathway (given the topic is about obesity and diabetes, I thought that would be assumed). So sorry, fiber, vitamins, electrolytes, etc. Huge deal and highly pertinent to the topic at hand.
To the other point, I don't really care. It wasn't my intention to be fact checked when it was shown by another poster to be true. To be honest, I just agreed, and though it may be a minor contributing factor in humans, I don't really care. It's certainly not worth winning a dumb argument over.
