       I just bought a flavoured hummus from the supermarket that turned out to be 7% sugar by weight. There really ought to be a warning label on products that are more than about 3% sugar.#sugar #SugarPoisoning #hummus #supermarkets

       @strypey I am fed up to the back teeth with added sugar in everything. If I want added sugar, I'm perfectly capable of adding it.

       @vik @strypey Agreed!  As someone who tries to avoid sugar I've found it quite painful. It's especially ridiculous seeing sugar in so many savoury products. A pinch here and there on some things is understandable (though not my preference!) but geez some of it is getting crazy. We're slowly becoming America!

       @vikI had no idea just how many food products had sugar added, and how many terms are used to disguise it, until I tried to avoid it completely.

       @EmPenTen> It's especially ridiculous seeing sugar in so many savoury productsHave you seen that sugar film?https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/That_Sugar_FilmThis guy stuck to foods generally considered "healthy" but still ended up way over the sugar consumption limit recommended by government nutritionists.@vik

       @strypey @vik I have!  Years ago now but yes it's good stuff. Plenty of other good documentaries on the same sort of subject too.I get almost religious about the subject of sugar / carbs and wish I could get everyone to watch that stuff and make a few changes!
