Food manufacturers are sneaking sugar into all kinds of surprising places these days, and one of them is bottled sauces and condiments. Barbeque sauce and ketchup each pack 3 grams into just two squeeze pouches, while salad dressings can have up to 6 grams of sugar in a 2-tablespoon serving. A half a cup of jarred marinara sauce can have a whopping 10 grams of sugar—that’s 2 ½ times as much added sugar as you should have in an hour, according to doctors. When it comes to sauces, don’t get duped: Go for no-sugar-added options—or better yet, make your own.
