[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Except that PP is correct. Let’s take yogurt, for example. Out of 50+ options in the case, which one has a reasonable amount of sugar? Plain. That’s it. And at my Giant, at least, there are maybe 4 options to choose from, only one or two of which are not fat free, which is vile and come with other things you don’t want to consume.[/quote] For people who are a healthy weight and eating an overall balanced diet, why is a yogurt with, say, 3 to 5 grams of sugar "unreasonable"? Are there new dietary guidelines that state the only amount of added sugar that is acceptable is zero? I usually have maybe 10-15 grams/day at the most, but there is room in my diet for a vanilla Icelandic Skyr with four ingredients and 3 grams of added sugar. I wish there were more low sugar options, but they do exist. [/quote] Amount of added sugar is zero for the products that shouldn't have it per common sense of any reasonable adult. That would include bread, lunch meat, [b]plain yogurt[/b], fresh salsa, canned veggies, some condiments (it is expected to see sugar in lets say, bbq sauce). Other products are fair game. [/quote] If I’m buying sweet peach yogurt- I expect it will have sugar. Foods that taste sweet have sugar. That is how it works. This isn’t hard [/quote] I specifically mentioned plain yogurt as one that should have 0 added sugar since it is what any reasonable person would expect, so not sure what you're trying to say here. [/quote]
