Yesterday I have just lost it while shopping for groceries. I was just about to buy some potato salad when I have discovered that one of the first ingredients was sugar.<\/p>\n
When I said I rather not have it then, the attendant did not understand what my problem was since “they pretty much sugar into everything”.<\/p>\n
I have just replied “because it is disgusting”.

I am used to the idea that in North America I cannot eat any dessert because they all contain enough sugar to kill a full grown bull elephant and they will try to come back the way they went down. But in reality even innocent looking savory dishes are loaded with sugar.<\/p>\n
I mean what kind of deranged psychopath looks at the humble potato which is already mostly starch and thinks: Jeez how could we make it more unhealthy and less pleasant to eat at the same time? Well, here is an idea: Put sugar on it.<\/p>\n
Seriously, here in Canada<\/a>, over 10% (may be closer to 20%) of the population suffers from type-II diabetes.<\/p>\n
Here is an idea for you: Ban adding sugar where it does not belong!<\/p>\n
