Very informative post, but it just makes me wonder all the more why my MFP daily sugar goal is 37, when my daily calorie goal is 1870. I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention to it as long as my carbs are under control. (I'm diabetic, so I keep an eye on them.) I try to eat 2-3 servings of (whole) fruit per day, that easily puts me over 37 without even counting the added sugars.

Food for thought. Thank you!

Nice to see they increased protein from 15% to 20.

I wish MFP could separate added sugar from sugar naturally in the food I eat. I suppose I could compute this, but I guess 1/2 is natural.
