Robert Lustig: Sugar: Hiding in plain sight
2014 • E35 Mar 31, 2014 4m
While sugar is easy to spot in candy, soft drinks and ice cream, it also hides out in foods you might not expect -- including peanut butter, pasta sauce and even bologna! Robert Lustig decodes confusing labels and sugar's many aliases to help determine just how much of that sweet carbohydrate makes its way into our diets. [Directed by The Tremendousness Collective, narrated by Michelle Snow].
