Where does most of the hidden sugar in your diet come from?



  • Cakes, cookies & candies
  • Jam, icing & sweet sauces
  • Dairy products (ice cream, shakes)
  • Beverages (soda, sports drinks)
  • All of the above!
  • I don't eat foods with added sugar.
  • Other .. please share

I don't eat much white stuff anymore,
But I voted cookies & cakes,
DD has discovered a love of baking
And we seem to have those around lately.


Close second would be ice cream
But lately we've had frozen yogurt w/no added sugar


And if I do have soda it's with sugar
Because I'm sensitivie to aspartame
And can't do diet.

"Other"....the sugar in my diet is not hidden for it comes from ordering dessert when we eat out! We went out tonight and I had one peanut butter cookie for dessert..not too bad considering the other choices. I like when restaurants offer cookies.


I don't buy foods for home with added sugars unless they're 4 grams or less per serving and not listed in the first four ingredients.

I like that Donna,
Good choice absolutely, wow yes!
And you're right .. often not hidden we see it
Nice to see you do well when buying things at the market with sugars .. or not really

Other. I do have the occasional bowl of sherbet or ice cream. I have been guilty of eating a cookie or piece of candy but these past three weeks have avoided those altogether. No sodas or sprt drinks at all. Mostly I guess it comes from my once-a-week Starbucks frappuccino.

Starbucks once a week isn't to bad Cappy.
I've weaned myself down.
It's more about walking up there with the family
And hanging out on Sunday morning than the coffee anymore
I LOVE it becoming a tradition with our kids.
