Soda pop is the big culprit. But there is more of it in everything. And now it's added in some stuff that never had it before.
Stats from a couple studies:
(There are 12 grams in a tablespoon)
1822 9g per day
2018 153g per day
1970 85g per day
1999 99g per day
2017 94g per day
The numbers are hard to crunch because sugar is so prevalent in processed food that finding a baseline is difficult.
But one thing is sure, we eat a lot more now than we used to.
