I never thought about it until my wife measured a teaspoon of sugar -- it's 5g. Now when I look at things like protein bars or Starbucks drinks and see 35g sugar I do a spit-take.
- jacobkania 6y agoYeah I think most carbs that you’ll eat are pretty OK (grains), but just the volume of sugar in most things unreal. The daily suggested limit of sugar is ~50g. Which is already a lot if you look at the volume of it all. But then consider a single can of soda is around that much. Bottles are around 75g. There are people who have 3+ sodas a day. http://sugarstacks.com/ http://sugarstacks.com/
