[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of products have hidden sugar and it is hard and expensive to find things like ketchup, barbecue sauce, soy sauce etc without sugar. Avoiding sugar can feel like a full time job in america. I am always surprised when I find yet another product with hidden sugar.[/quote]

That isn’t the problem.  Those items have always had sugar in them, and the sugar is minimal.  The problem is portion size and having a diet consisting of essentially junk food- not ketchup and soy sauce. [/quote]

It’s really not hard to avoid sugar. Don’t eat ketchup and bbq sauce. It’s entirely unnecessary. Cook at home with minimal sugar. It’s really not hard. [/quote]
It is hard to avoid sugar when eating out/buying pre-made food for quick meals at home. Maybe if you SAHP or don't have kids it's easy, but with 3 kids and 2 FT demanding jobs - it's really a struggle sometimes because added sugar is everywhere.[/quote]

You have chosen to structure your life so that cooking and eating healthy food isn’t a priority. I guess that answers the subject title question, at least. [/quote]
My point is it's not easy, no matter how you slice it. Healthy food vs fulfilling job for both parents - are you seriously can call that an easy choice????[/quote]
