Summary Annotation It's no surprise that sugar has been on our minds for millennia. First cultivated in New Guinea around 8000 BCE, this addictive sweetener has since come to dominate our appetites, whether in candy, desserts, soft drinks, or even pasta sauces, for better and for worse. In this book, Andrew F. Smith offers a history of this simultaneously beloved and reviled ingredient, holding its incredible value as a global commodity up against its darker legacies of slavery and widespread obesity.
