Just to address the subtext in the original comment, yes there is a bleaching process, but it's not the chlorine bleach you use in the laundry, it's SO2 gas. And since SO2 gas is so volatile, it's get absolutely evaporated away during the sugar drying process, there'll be virtually no trace left in the final product, which funnily enough, is pretty much pure sucrose. If you're scared of SO2 (and there's no reason to be), you should be much more scared of dried apricots (which are totally fine), which are preserved using SO2.
Harvesting is not the first step if you are a grower, far from it! I had no idea about all the processes used to extract and revive sugar crystals until I watched this. Very good educational video, I wish you had included how the sugar cane or sugar beet is actually grown too.
@@corinasechelariu1307big scary chemical sounding names scare you? Would it help you sleep at night if they just called it sulphur smoke and pure limestone?
All those chemicals are ultimately 99.999% removed from the final product due to the purification of crystallization, so it's a total non-concern (aside from the fact that pure sugar is high in calories and completely lacking in any nutrition). Also, you're kidding yourself if you think natural sugar is any different to this process, they just drip some of the molasses back into the white sugar to make it look brown and "natural" just to trick gullible uneducated people like you.

WOW! That's a lot of processes!
Now I understand the saying "Complicated as a sugar mill"...
a LOT of these clips have been seen in other "how its made" videos. But the process is really intricate. I've never seen this done before.
Wow it's incredible that 10000 years ago they had these machines.
That's why it was extremely expensive back then because they didn't have those machines.

Thanks for helping me get turned off from sugar
Fr I literally don't want to consume sugar now
Me too 😢
@toygardner8870 still are
👍👍👍
Oh my goodness, I had no idea. I don’t want to use sugar after watching this.
Makes me wonder how on earth anyone made sugar hundreds of years ago before all this automation.
it was brown sugar, molasses, which is a paste, it was not white crystals
I find your videos a great place to explore and learn. The content in the video is exciting and thought-provoking.
Who doesn't love sugar
Looked up “how sugar is made” was greatly disappointed 😔
why?

How did they even come across this methods

It's not like they invented this all at once. It's mostly just simple chemistry.
we’ve been tricked into suger
First you get the sugar then you get the money
Fact
So they Bleach the sugar in the "tall" towers to make it white....they left this important fact out
Exactly right
I mean they tell it later, SO2 gas is added. It acts as to precipitate calcium hydroxide(lime) to form calcium sulphite. Removed during distillation.

now i can make sugar yay

Yeah that's normal....
How much is the whole machine
What got me was that ethanol was used to make the sugar powder
Fr that’s all i was thinking about too lol
What's wrong with Ethanol, it's just alcohol? What got me was sulfur dioxide
@@adams5414ethanol can be made from sugar
I still don't know how sugar is made.
That was fantastic break down bravo
This is awesome. God bless you for this great work
Remember guys just cause it comes from the ground, does not make it healthy.
All these processes means only big business can own sugar factories
I like how Tajinder kainth walks and build houses
WOW that's incredible
looks highly processed and toxic
This should be called “how we poison the masses”
No
Highly processed? Yes. Toxic? No. (Well, it's not exactly good for you as any nutritionist will tell you, but saying it's toxic is absurd.)
wowwww it is help me a lot in my assignment tnx ❤❤❤
Sugar was first commercially produced in the than India now Bangladesh some 2000 years back
How are you making sugar cane
Simple as sugar making in factory?
This commentator makes me feel like he's talking to a toddler. Acting like he's annoyed I asked a question
I want to know how it was made before all the chemical processes that I just watched
Why dont they just buy it from the store
That's why sugar bar for you body!
Tajinder kainth is a very sweet boy
So that's why some stores carry natural sugar. I'm guessing natural sugar isn't made with all these chemicals.
no all sugar is processed with chemicals
Chemicals are not always bad. The human body is one big chemical factory in fact... the lime, surcose an ethanol are harmless substances.
Yeah here 5 dollar the pound sugar for the natural lady.
@@Murilover202 And the Calcium hydroxide, Sulfur dioxide...

So you’re saying honey is probably the best option.
😮😮😮we eat poison

Yes, I counted, 6 types of chemicals are added in this making...still u would buy it? Go for natural sugar guys !!!

Even though sweets are my favorite food

Just eat fruit man.

The sugar was first produced in India.
Is that what they teach you in Indian schools?
