Has anyone else noticed this sugar that is supposed to be twice as sweet?
It is made by the market leaders, I believe, but how can a sugar be twice as sweet as sugar. Was the good 'old fashioned' sugar diluted in some way. Perhaps with dust? If so, we have all been getting ripped off for years as I am sure the ingreients would be listed as
Sugar - 100 percent
Fat, nil
Salt, nil
Colourings, nil
It's twice as sweet but twice the price.
I asked the manager at my local supermarket to comment. "Twice as sweet but twice the price. What's the point in that?" He didn't know what to say.
Luckily his eager, recently graduated, assistant came to his rescue. "It means you have to carry less".
That's what 3 years of watching Richard and Judy, playing Playstation, and attending the odd lecture does for you.
So the once a year I buy a packet of sugar I pay double for the 'benefit' of carrying less weight.
So now, with the exception of salt, one of the most harmful ingredients you can utilise in food, in essence, affords you less weight to carry and therefore less exercise.
What fantasitic marketing.
