America’s sweet tooth

Sugar. Also known as: Brown Sugar, Corn Syrup, Dextrose, Fructose, Glucose, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Honey, Evaporated Cane Syrup, Lactose, Maltodextrin, Maple Syrup, Rice Syrup, Sucrose…I could go on all day, but I think you get the point – we’ve come up with over 50 names for sugar.
