Sugar
Limited nutritional benefit
White granulated sugar (sucrose), values as sold.
Refined white sugar (sucrose) from sugar cane or sugar beet, used to sweeten tea and coffee and in baking, desserts, jams and sauces. A 5 g teaspoon gives about 19 kcal, all of it sugar, with no fiber or protein and only traces of minerals. Brown sugar is nearly identical: its thin coating of molasses adds color and flavor, but its extra minerals are negligible in teaspoon amounts.
