      It’s the cheapest sugar option in the us, so it goes in everything that’s not a “premium” brand, and even then it might still have it in there.

        And products that “remove” it replace it with glucose-fructose, or sometimes even pure fructose, which hilariously shows both that companies don’t give a fuck, AND consumers are really stupid on average.

          Both things can be true.

      American manufacturers. We’re stuck with what we get and that shit’s in everything.

      Most anyone you’d ask here will tell you they prefer sugar and we’ll take that option whenever it’s available and not stupidly expensive.
