Twenty years ago, I met a couple with a young son who decided not to let the kid have sugar. I wonder how that might have worked out for the kid now that he's grown.

I assume the kid hit 18 and went on a sugar binge as soon as he tasted it the first time.

Anyone have experience with this?

Saliva breaks down starch in your mouth to sugar! Spit has the enzyme amylase, so the longer u chew starchy foods the more sugary it becomes before u swallow!
