Do You Drink Sweet Tea from McDonald's?

 I had something to say, but I am too tired. I do want to share something with you.

A Tik Tok video showed a four-pound bag of White Satin Sugar into a container of tea at McDonald's. The amount is alarming. However, the worst part is that it is beet sugar. I do not consume beet sugar. Why?

Beet sugar, of course, comes from beets. As far as I know, beets for commercial use are Roundup Ready. The growing beets can be sprayed with Roundup to kill the weeds. However, the beets don't die from Roundup. The beets then have Roundup in them. I presume that beets have residue of Roundup. 

This is the way I understand it.

When I see a good sale on sugar, I make sure I see the words "cane sugar." Otherwise, I don't take advantage of a super-low sale price. 

Actually, beet sugar has an off taste in baked goods and in other uses. NOTE: I typed the previous sentence, wrongly stating that cane sugar has an off-taste. 

Maybe you have information that cane sugar is not as pure as I think it is. I don't care. lol

Thankfully, when I was eight years old, my mother quit putting sugar in the pitcher of tea for supper each night. She said she was pregnant and did not want to gain too much weight. So, I can have tea without worrying about my health.

Do you avoid cane sugar? Do you just use anything that is labeled sugar?
