ADDED SUGAR It’s true that our children are born with a sweet tooth. Focusing on naturally sweet foods, rather than those with added sugar, is a great way to help shape our children’s preference for whole, fresh foods for years to come. Nutritious foods that naturally contain sugar include fruits, some vegetables, and some dairy products. Added sugars can be found in the obvious desserts and sugary beverages, but also in less obvious foods including flavored yogurts, breakfast cereals and waffles, and even condiments like spaghetti sauce and ketchup.
