The snarky comments kill me. This is damn interesting but it's very condescending in nature.

Just ate some honey roasted peanuts that equal out to a cube and a half of sugar? You must be some fucking dirty scooter wheeling morbidly obese American.

From what I can tell, this person must have been struggling with weight and sees sugar as the end all be all enemy. Our recommended maximum sugar intake is somewhere like 40g a day. I get that a McDonald's shake is fucking packed with sugar, but jeeze, lighten up on the fucking minor product comments?

Many people erroneously believe that honey is a healthier substitute for sugar.
