Should I be concerned that Similac Organic and Sensitive baby formula mixes are mostly sugar?

Similac Organic's third ingredient is "organic sugar." Similac Sensitive's first and second ingredient are: Corn Syrup Solids and Sugar. Should I be concerned that these formulas are mostly sugar? If anyone has been using these products please let me know how your baby reacted to them. Thanks!

I am not a parent, but I remember helping my father prepare "sugar water" for my brother when he was a baby about to come home from the hospital. Babies do need some sugar, and normally breast fed babies get that through their mothers.

However, I know Similac has been around for years and years. I wonder how much "sugar in the formula" has been affecting kids, and teaching them a sweet tooth -- strongly contributing to the problems today with obesity.

Here is a cool article on the nutrition in infant formula: http://www.keepkidshealthy.com/nutrition/infant_formula_basics.html
