Several people have told me about this anti-sugar rant from John Oliver recently, on Last Week Tonight. It’s pretty funny.

My wife and I howled with laughter, especially at the quip about processed food manufacturers wanting to disclose the amount of added sugar in grams instead of teaspoons.

Just...wow! He's absolutely on track, but what an entertainment factor! I may watch it again just to make sure I didn't miss anything. I'd like to play it for my family and friends.

Three times what we need? Who told the narrator that we need any sugar at all?

AN ELEPHANT DID WHAT IN SPLENDA? Oh my gosh. This is wonderful to see hit mainstream media. I totally agree with Vicente, since when do we need sugar? Maybe they meant carbs.
