Visualizing Sugar Content Helps To Cut Back

[Mergie Master]

This is a new website that shows how much sugar is in processed foods by showing the amount in cubes. The idea is somewhat psychological in it's approach to help you cut back on how much sugar you consume. If you have a mental picture of how many cubes are in each serving of a product it makes it more real to you.

As I said it's a new site and has kind of gone viral right now. The servers can't handle all the traffic so I will post the link and then post mirror sites and images. Later when the traffic slows down you will be able to get to the actual site.

Here's the link to the site: http://sugarstacks.com/

Here's a link to a blog that has copied some of the content of the site:

Sugar Content In Some Food

I believe some of you are aware of this already. I find this information quite useful and easy to understand. Some of the food labels actually say "Naturally sweetened with sugars" or "Less sugars". But, have you ever wondered how much the content of sugars in it actually are?

Sugar contents in beverages:


Sugar contents in cookies:


Sugar contents in deserts:


Sugar contents in snacks:



Sugar contents in shakes and smoothies:


Sugar contents in sauces and condiments:


Summary:
One cube of sugar here represent a teaspoon which is equivalent to 4g.
