      I would assume most of that sugar is going into cakes and puddings. If you’re only getting one egg a week, it’s probably put to more use in baking than eating straight up.

        I get it. I made a concerted effort to stop using sugar in foods, and I’ve been quite successful. Carrots are a great way to add sweetness, so I go through a ton of those orange beauties.
