People are often surprised by the proportions of ingredients in restaurant food anyway. The reason that restaurant food tastes "better" than home cooking is often down to added sugar, salt, and fat.

- superkuh 6y ago2:1 flour to sugar ratio in banana bread and that's not counting the sugar in the bananas. But banana bread is only named bread. It is technically a cake.
- dangravell 6y agoTechnically I'd call it a quickbread (muffin). Cake has more even ratios and more defined mixing techniques (creaming, foaming).
- eindiran 6y agoGiven that baker's percentages are given as a percentage of the flour content of an item[0], you could argue that the baker's percentage of sugar in a banana approaches infinity. Baker's percentage (foo) = 100% * weight(foo) / weight(flour) [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker_percentage
