I see that this is a US versus Europe issue. It is also a problem with "normal". People grow up eating overly sugary foods and that becomes normal to them. A lot of the US "whole grain" breads have more sugar than the white bread versions. Our "no fat" yogurts are filled with sugar. People drink monstrous "coffee" drinks that are 1200 calories. Our food pyramid was developed by the Department of Agriculture, NOT the Department of Health. There is corn syrup in almost everything.
"Not just sweetened soda, but many other packaged foods sold in the US contain up to twice as much sugar as their European counterparts."
