Bad press.

Please bear in mind that HFCS (in mainstream use) is either 55% Fructose/42% Glucose (used mainly in drinks) or 42% Fructose/53% Glucose (typically used in food and baked goods).

Or, judging by their recent behaviour, they'd simply lower the bar for approval even further so as to improve their throughput without the need to hire more staff.
