You eat sugar in some form everyday so it’d be pretty hard and pointless to try and ban it. And potentially more harmful too. Used wisely, just like drugs, sugar can be good for you- that’s why our bodies like it.

Fruit juice regularly contains a small amount of alcohol, yet I'm sure nobody counts it as a drug. Shouldn't we consider sugar similarly? An apple? Not a drug. A candy bar or a soda? Well, it does give you energy and a good feeling...
- robbrown451 6y agoApple juice has as much sugar as soda. Also, what about breakfast cereal? Canned pasta marketed to kids? Etc. All have lots of sugar. Where do you draw the line?
- luckylion 6y agoAnything artificially sweetened would be a good start, I suppose. I'm not in the "omg drugs, we can't have those!"-camp, but viewing sugar similar to caffeine makes sense to me. It seems to be addictive, it will change your state and mood, and high-dose and long-term use is bad for you.
