November 19, 2015. It is an Instagram account, that of @dealerdesucre, which reveals in images the equivalent in lumps of sugar of many products consumed in our daily life. An account that has the merit of teaching us a lot about our diet at a glance!
It was an Instagram user who had the very simple idea of photographing food that we consume on a daily basis, alongside their equivalent in sugar cubes.
A clear and quick way to inform internet users about their often excessive sugar consumption and realize that sugar is ubiquitous in our daily diet.
Surprising examples? One can of oasis is the equivalent of 6 lumps of sugar. One chocolate muffin is equal to 5 lumps of sugar. And a hamburger that we imagine salty represents 2 and a half sugars.
As a reminder, excessive sugar consumption leads to risks of overweight and obesity, factors of cardiovascular illnesses and of diabetes.
