Bananas and apples have plenty of sugar in them FYI. Depending on the brand, same with peanut butter.

- drdrey 9y agoA banana has 30g carbs (15g sugars), while the Trader Joe's peanut butter I am looking at has 7g carbs (2g sugars) in a 32g serving.
- stevenwoo 9y agoA difference is if one eats an apple or banana, one gets some fiber and substance to food that probably satiates appetite more than straight sugar does. Most of the calories in peanut butter come from fat - this probably satiates hunger more than eating the equivalent amount of sugar as well.
- hycaria 9y agoBut there are as much fiber in potatoes as in bananas. Both foods are similar. So excluding potatoes (as in example above) makes no sense to me...
- always_good 9y agoHow do their micronutrient profiles compare?
- stevenwoo 9y agoSorry, I was only responding to the immediate comment about apples and bananas.
