Sneaky Sugar reveals the hidden added sugar in everyday foods and drinks — the surprising amounts lurking in sodas, energy drinks, frozen coffees, yogurt, cereal, sauces, and even a “healthy” açaí bowl — all measured and ranked in teaspoons.
This bold, easy-to-read 18" x 24" poster turns confusing gram counts into instant, at-a-glance teaspoons of sugar. It’s perfect for classrooms, clinics, wellness programs, dietitian and doctor offices, break rooms, gyms, and kitchens.
What’s on the poster
- 30+ everyday foods & drinks ranked by added sugar — shown in both grams and teaspoons
- Eye-opening “Beware” callouts — a 44 oz fountain soda packs 27½ teaspoons
- “Sounds Healthy” surprises like the açaí bowl (13½ tsp) and flavored yogurt
- The limit vs. reality: about 7½ tsp/day recommended vs. the ~17 tsp the average American actually eats
- Grounded in the 2025–2030 U.S. Dietary Guidelines, CDC, and manufacturer & USDA nutrition data
