I try to not go over 25 grams from all sources. Not that hard

The USDA number used is total sweetner production per capita, before spoilage and loss considerations. It is estimated at least 20% of that number is lost, not consumed.

I've got about 52 g from fruits and veg (and sweet potato) total today. I don't see any reason to limit those foods.

Impressive!
Please share your diary so we can get an insight.
I've noticed some foods in the data base are incomplete and only show carbohydrate and sugar is not listed. Also micro-nutrients aren't listed at all for so many foods.

"That Sugar Film" is misinformation. Same with "Fed Up". Avoid both.

How so? I thought it offered an excellent view into the world's obsession with sugars, the obesity health crisis, and how prevalent sugar is in most of our food options.

I never saw the movie Fed Up, I was asking about the movie that Sugar Film.

So some article trumps a documentary film. Impressive stuff.

Documents with sources trump bald assertions, yes.
