    I never considered the lack of %DV. That really is wack as fuck.

    It’s not just the sugar content either, the type of sugar matters a great deal. High fructose is much worse than the same quantity of glucose.

      Even if it was the “good” sugar, most food items in North America contain multiple days worth of sugar in a single serving. Most people eat multiple servings at once.
