We generally think that the sugar we consume comes from common sugary foods on the market, such as cakes, biscuits, chocolate bars, ice cream...etc, but sugar can also be found in most items you would keep in your pantry, such as bread , pasta sauce, energy bars, yogurt. These are foods that are often promoted as healthy and good. The facts are accurate: manufacturers put 74% of the sugars in these products.
