Yes, traditional white table sugar is CARBS, but so is flour, rice, potatoes, fruit, and corn to name a few. You are
in more danger from flour,
rice, and potatoes than you are from a teaspoon full of sugar!!!
Can you imagine eating a cup of sugar, teaspoon full by teaspoon full? Yuck.
Now, imagine you are eating/drinking a cup of rice or potatoes or pasta or bread or applesauce or soda pop. Yummy? Danger Danger Will Robinson! Now you are beginning to understand CARBS.
