I found the actual levels in one of the highest foods tested (it was quaker oats oatmeal, the 'to go' variety) and it had 350 ppt mercury in it from the HFCS. For comparison....tuna has 0.5 ppm mercury which is 500,000 ppt mercury.
So tuna has over 1,400x more mercury than the highest food contaminated by HFCS.
Thats just to give you an idea of how much mercury is in HFCS products...I'm still curious as of the form of mercury it contains as that would make a big difference. I personally haven't eaten corn syrup in years and will keep it that way.
