Look at how much sugar is in the food you eat every day, then look up how much sugar you are recommended to consume every day. There isn't a daily value % next to the sugar content on food labels.
I never considered the lack of %DV. That really is wack as fuck.
It's not just the sugar content either, the type of sugar matters a great deal. High fructose is much worse than the same quantity of glucose.
Even if it was the "good" sugar, most food items in North America contain multiple days worth of sugar in a single serving. Most people eat multiple servings at once.
