Sugar consumption has increased by more than 30% in Britain and on average we’re consuming 30 teaspoons every day! However we’re adding less sugar to Tea and Coffee or cereals as we become health conscious. Most of the sure we consume is in pre prepared or processed foods that have added sugar – drinks, cakes, and even savoury foods. Baked beans have 1.5 teaspoons of sugar whilst stir-fry sauces have 6.
The downside is that foods that we consider healthy such as wholemeal breads, breakfast cereals and soups are significantly sweeter than they used to be. As the government tries to get us and food companies to cut down on Salt, sugar seems to have gone up.
