I had a friend who went to America and they said they had to buy sugar free bread, because otherwise it tasted like cake, CAKE! That's just insane, how much sugar is in American food even compared to countries like the U.K. and Australia.
Raptor Jesus oh yeah, having sugar in bread is ridiculous but apparently it's the case in America. No wonder they're all fat. And remember that America is a country where the FDA approves every chemical under the sun for use in food, guns can be purchased with your daily bread and milk, pizza is classed as one of your five a day in schools, and everyone is on psychiatric medication, yet Kinder Eggs are illegal.

Biggest mistake I ever made was buying a Tuna sandwich in LA airport after a 14hr flight from Australia.

My mum limited our sugar - didn't cut it off altogether - mostly because there was no fancy sweeteners when I was a kid but just limited sweets and fizzy drinks.

I think there should be a sugar tax in the US. We're substituting nutritional foods with non-nutritional foods. For example, eggs and bacon and fruit used to be popular breakfast items. Now it's cereal (which is practically bowl filled with sugar and milk) bc of convenience. Or yogurt cups which are also packed with corn syrup and sugar. There are foods in the US that are actually banned from other countries BECAUSE there is so much sugar in the food.
You even put sugar in bread and so much high fructose corn syrup in drinks that they also shove a load of salt in too to stop it being so sweet it's disgusting.

Guys just educate yourself on the basics of macronutrients and start reading nutrition labels. Find out how many calories your body needs. Count all your calories and look for ways to feel more satiated on fewer calories if you're not seeing any progress.
The U.K. introduced a sugar tax in 2018 exactly as discussed and no, it didn’t start a war. In fact, it has had a benefit. Coca-cola has rebranded their Coke Zero bottles to be the main red logo with a band at the top saying it’s zero. They have pushed that to be their primary product in the UK, as both Zero and Diet are now cheaper than Regular thanks to the sugar tax. All other soft drinks are now also promoting their diet drinks more than their full fat ones. It’s worked exactly as planned.
When I was a kid, I used to eat sugar cubes just by themselves and the box said each cube was equal to 1 tsp sugar cuz it was so compacted. I never ate more than a few at a time, not cuz it was sweet, just cuz I didn’t want to get caught! Staples in our house were to be use for their directed purpose cuz only my dad worked for a house of 6. But I worked in a Tim Hortons years ago, and one regular customer would get smtg like 6&6 in a small coffee, which was 6 pushes of the button on the cream dispenser & 6 pkgs of sugar. Hardly any room for coffee!! In comparison, I used to get the xtra large with 4&4. And I lived in Canada, NOT the south of the US!!
In the description - I'm sorry to be this person - but it should say 'affect'. Sorry. Thank you for everything you are, Last Leg staff, including the person who wrote the description.
Thank you so much for bringing it up, and ever so politely to boot - that was killing me. There's nothing wrong with a gentle correction of spelling & grammar. For some reason we tolerate it less on the very few occasions people make mistakes like 10 + 11 = 47, but people get very, very defensive of their spelling/grammatical errors.
I normally just get an English breakfast tea and add creamer, or a passion fruit iced tea, which contains virtually no sugar at the get-go. The barista told me she could "pump" liquid sugar into it, and that 4 pumps is the standard. I opt for 1, or 2 at the most. 4 is absolutely disgusting.
Why put so much sugar in everything? ...sugar is addictive, more addictive than cocaine. Why put so much sugar in everything? because that's how a drug dealer makes their money.
Im not sure when it happened but in the 50s and 60s and even throughout the 70s and 80s it was talked about quite a lot that there should be only a certain amount of sugar ingested each day. I think mens “max” amount is around 35 and women around 25. Don’t quote me on that. The thing is, now there is sugar in everything and so much of it. That and fat/trans fat. Its insane man, I really think this should be addressed because you can plainly see that it’s affecting people negatively. Watch your sugar intake everyone, be careful with your diet. Its a huge impact on your health and what sucks is that no doctor will tell you that your health issues are due to diet and lifestyle.
Personally, I think the tax is a great idea but it isn't a travesty for Starbucks to supply something that clearly some customers are willing to try or even drink on a regular basis. People should have more self-control not rely on companies to do it for them.
If I ate the iron from red meat I probably wouldn’t like it either Though this amount of sugar is horrible to eat by itself doesn’t mean we can enjoy in when it’s mixed with other things
but this is one drink. one! that much in one day in one drink. even if you didnt eat any other sugar that is enough amount for days (how much iron in one steak though?)
Any tax is not about the health of the people, it is about the government making money. Teaching better eating habits, making healthier food and limiting how much sugar can be put in products is a much better option.
I've only ever had like 4 starbucks in my life and every single time I felt sick during and after drinking the concoctions ... I don't know why its everywhere and so popular O.o A normal coffee with one sugar is totally fine like no need to go crazy
Wolf Moon I've only ever had two and tbh you're right it's sickly sweet, it's over hyped, most of the locally owned coffee shops do far healthier, cheaper and better quality coffee
While you put your own sugar (or not) in the lattes. But half the time the person working there doesn't know how to make one & you get watery milk coffee.
Just for perspective, one teaspoon of sugar is equivalent to 4.3 grams of sugar. 25 teaspoons equals 107.5 grams of sugar. The average adult male should be consuming no more than 38 grams of sugar per day, or 9 teaspoons, or more than 2 and a half times less than what the one product presented in this clip contains.
I am a Type 2 diabetic, and I do not miss sugar at all. Changing your diet is easy, there are plenty of sugar free drinks around, and I take sweeteners in my coffee and tea which are sugar free. Doing that helped me lose 3 stones of weight in three months. It is not the fat we eat, it is the sugar we take which makes us obese or over weight.
The problem with a sugar tax, much like the Greens wanting a meat tax, is that it just fucks over the worst off in society who can't afford better quality food. And I'm no talking starbux, there's a whole load of cheap, low quality food, that makes up for the taste by adding sugar. Far better idea would be legislation subsidising healthy food, and just flat legal limits on the amout of sugar something can have.
oh! and fun fact once I spent a night at a really poor guys house who I didn't know well at all and we were both really hungry but fuck all shops around or money .. so he gave me fucking dry toast with sugar on it. I was so hungry I actually tried it but fuck me it was one of the lowest moments ever.
yes, life is sweet in America....sugar sweetened cereals, sugary drinks, fizzy and still, one of childhood's iconic beverages states to put a cup of sugar into 2 quarts of water when adding their 'flavor' packet. Sugar Cured ham...yes, candied meats, .....since the age of 16 I have struggled with sugar, if I eat a candy bar, I'm doing head dives (nodding off) in about 20 minutes afterward, no sugar rush. oh yeah, SUGAR is EVERY WHERE!...look out! He's Behind You! Oh YES HE IS!!!!!
I think it’s common practice to add a stabiliser which allows you to tolerate that amount of sugar in one serving. If Josh actually ate the bowl he would vomit before ever finishing.
np. they were talking about teaspoons though. It's probably the production team trying to make it have more of a visual impact? Shoulda just showed 25tps in the bowl- it's still loads.
idk, 25 teaspoons is 125ml, looks to be in the ballpark (and comes to like 500 calories, can get higher cal drinks at starbucks). The thick glass bowl might make it seem like more?
Sugar tax, like minimum alcohol pricing (whose proceeds don't even go to government or charities - just to line the companies' pockets in one way or another) impact literally one demographic: the impoverished poor who are having to resort to such low quality foods in the first place. A sugar tax is all well and good if you can afford to get your fresh bread from the artisanal bakery down the road but if you're a working-class, struggling family, you're going to choose the 40p basics one that's probably full of crap out of necessity. These ideas and incentives sound good to people who could actually afford them, not realising that the people they'll actually impact are the ones that have no choice.
it doesn't. i'm sorry, but it just doesn't. if you replaced the sugar content of that drink with ethanol, *you'd need a fucking stomach pump*. alcohol is FAR more dangerous than sugar.
sugar is a stimulant alcohol is a depressant although, if you have ABS and drink a starbucks from a drive-through, by the time you get to the slip road onto the M1 you're gonna be over the limit
To be fair Adam you can easily afford a sugar tax, we should be making healthier food more accessible to everyone not just adding money worries on to people's poor health. Maybe send out healthy cook books in the post highlight in them cheap dishes to make and I think anything to keep young children enjoying being active should be heavily pushed.
And I should add sugar tax in itself isn't bad but you have to give an alternative. Maybe as some people have suggested in the comments use it to fund healthy eating programmes through the country
I know it’s crazy but I eat pure sugar by itself and I actually think I’m addicted to it and everyone wonders how I eat and actually like it but to me it’s better than any sweets because it’s just purely the sweetest thing you can eat and I crave it a lot.. I really need help lol
Just listen to the people laughing in the back. Is this even real? Why? They laugh for the same exact time. Short, long, clapping. I'm too tired for this.

The oldest nations in Europe are thousands of years old. Europeans have evolved to have a salty palate because we've used salt to preserve our food for hundreds of generations. The U.S. has only existed for barely 250 years and was founded not long before the industrial revolution when we started mass producing candy and sodas such as Coca Cola. Their palate has evolved to be sweet.
I don’t think Starbucks should reduce the amount of sugar they use. Not fair to the people that want it like me. Maybe add an alternative “less sugar” option. I personally love their sugary drinks. Only reason I go there tbh
"how are you drinking that" As Josh sits there eating a bowl of sugar.

I think it’s common practice to add a stabiliser which allows you to tolerate that amount of sugar in one serving. If Josh actually ate the bowl he would vomit before ever finishing.
No, stabilizers are used to stop fat and water separating.
that bowl has about 100+ tps in it. there's no way that's only 25
EdibleCastleWill 100+ teaspoons yes, but they were talking about tablespoons I think
np. they were talking about teaspoons though. It's probably the production team trying to make it have more of a visual impact? Shoulda just showed 25tps in the bowl- it's still loads.
EdibleCastleWill yeah probably; this whole scene seemed a little off fact wise anyway
idk, 25 teaspoons is 125ml, looks to be in the ballpark (and comes to like 500 calories, can get higher cal drinks at starbucks). The thick glass bowl might make it seem like more?
3:36 [I think] poor josh it looked like he was about to cry
Black coffee, no sugar is my drink of choice.
Me too. Turkish coffee without sugar.
I just clicked because I've been known to eat sugar by the little packets, at about 10 at a time. I feel like I would do a bit better than Josh here.
I'm literally eating a share bag of Chocolate Orange segments while watching this.
Sugar tax, like minimum alcohol pricing (whose proceeds don't even go to government or charities - just to line the companies' pockets in one way or another) impact literally one demographic: the impoverished poor who are having to resort to such low quality foods in the first place. A sugar tax is all well and good if you can afford to get your fresh bread from the artisanal bakery down the road but if you're a working-class, struggling family, you're going to choose the 40p basics one that's probably full of crap out of necessity. These ideas and incentives sound good to people who could actually afford them, not realising that the people they'll actually impact are the ones that have no choice.
I can't believe the legal people later made Adam say that sugar doesn't affect you the same way as alcohol!
it doesn't. i'm sorry, but it just doesn't. if you replaced the sugar content of that drink with ethanol, *you'd need a fucking stomach pump*.
alcohol is FAR more dangerous than sugar.
... and contains loads of sugar itself... ;)
sugar is a stimulant
alcohol is a depressant
although, if you have ABS and drink a starbucks from a drive-through, by the time you get to the slip road onto the M1 you're gonna be over the limit
It was pretty clearly a joke. Of course they don't have the same effect, in the same way that oxygen and water aren't the same.
I think I just watched what I needed to stop eating sugar
There must be Gallifreyan technology involved, that's more sugar than can fit in that cup. It must be bigger on the inside!
It's sugar cubes. It's more compressed.
To be fair Adam you can easily afford a sugar tax, we should be making healthier food more accessible to everyone not just adding money worries on to people's poor health. Maybe send out healthy cook books in the post highlight in them cheap dishes to make and I think anything to keep young children enjoying being active should be heavily pushed.
And I should add sugar tax in itself isn't bad but you have to give an alternative. Maybe as some people have suggested in the comments use it to fund healthy eating programmes through the country
The simple days of when the last leg only had to talk about a sugar tax
Got a Starbucks ad before this lol
At first i was like man this pal has quite small hands and then i looked a little closer and was like wtf
is it bad that I could've easily eaten that sugar without getting too sick?
The problem is, she doesnt really seem that bovered
This is a stolen comment from literally 3 years ago...
I know it’s crazy but I eat pure sugar by itself and I actually think I’m addicted to it and everyone wonders how I eat and actually like it but to me it’s better than any sweets because it’s just purely the sweetest thing you can eat and I crave it a lot.. I really need help lol
This was actually the very first clip I ever saw of this show
When they say 25 spoons of sugar, is that flat or heaped?
Just listen to the people laughing in the back. Is this even real? Why? They laugh for the same exact time. Short, long, clapping. I'm too tired for this.
It isn't always the exact same...
Catherine is quaking 😆😆😆
And I'm still gonna drink it lol
I was just watching and I was all like “😧 she’s from the office”
When your're watching Doctor Who and then switch to a random UA-cam video but it follows you...
Since when had the guy in the middle had funny hands?
Stuart Stretch Since birth
Stuart Stretch it's a birth defect ir also affects his legs so he has a prosthetic foot
I had never, never noticed this. Seen him plenty of times on TV and never spotted this.
also... I don't think it's funny. At all.
turmat01 he ment funny as in odd, out of place, weird
I thought the thumbnail was photoshopped then I looked at his hands in the video lol
These people are literally unfunny
Yeah, they're hardly funny and the audience is eating it up. A disgrace to British humor if you ask me.
@@FlintSparkedStudios same for american TV dont worry. They light up a big neon sign for the audience that says "please laugh and clap" damn I bet they feel like they are hilarious
They should have gave josh salt just to piss him off
am I the only one to think., that Catherine Tate, is beautiful.. but, annoying to look at?! :D
Na, she's awesome. I've never thought she was annoying in anyway/
I don't like a lot of her characters, but she can do straight acting very well, is funny in normal conversation, and she is very sexy.
It’s midnight; it officially is Christmas as of 12 minutes ago and I’m really lying in bed, my phone propped up a across the room watching a fucking talk show. Merry Christmas guys
The oldest nations in Europe are thousands of years old. Europeans have evolved to have a salty palate because we've used salt to preserve our food for hundreds of generations. The U.S. has only existed for barely 250 years and was founded not long before the industrial revolution when we started mass producing candy and sodas such as Coca Cola. Their palate has evolved to be sweet.
The "gives you cancer" threat amuses me.
For every country on earth theres at least 2 things that can give you cancer.
I don’t think Starbucks should reduce the amount of sugar they use. Not fair to the people that want it like me. Maybe add an alternative “less sugar” option. I personally love their sugary drinks. Only reason I go there tbh
Watching this while eating majorly sugary foods!
What happened to Captain Sparkles hands?
That's not possible. You can't physically dissolve that amount of sugar in such a small amount of liquid. 🤦♂️
@Omar Ignacio Silvestrini yeah nahhhh you're dumb 👍
Liquid sugar
