Twenty years ago, I met a couple with a young son who decided not to let the kid have sugar. I wonder how that might have worked out for the kid now that he’s grown.

I assume the kid hit 18 and went on a sugar binge as soon as he tasted it the first time.

Anyone have experience with this?

    You also lived during the “fat” craze. Fat was deemed bad so manufacturers filled their food with sugar so they could market it as low fat.

    It’s Capitalism all the way down

      Fuck Kellogg and the Seventh Day Adventists.

      Religious zealots ruin everything.

      Well, religions ruin everything but they require puppets to do the work.

          They’re directly responsible for the demonization of meat and fats which led to carb heavy diet recommendations which, in turn, caused the obesity epidemic.

          Also, they’re a bunch of religious zealots which are categorically a threat to egalitarian democratic societies.
