I don't know what it is, but isn't it scary to read what actually goes into some of the processed stuff out there? Definitely not as Mother Nature meant for us to live. That being said, some of that stuff tastes so good!

Default Re: Hydrogenated Starch

Hydrogenated Starch = Hydrogenated Starch Hydrosylate = HSH = Polyglycitol

Those are all names for a sugar alcohol syrup that is mostly maltitol. So, just translate it to maltitol.
