This is why I started making a lot of my own things. There are lots of options in the store for some items where you can get something without sugar that didn't need it. But then there's things like mayonnaise... Let me tell you that mayonnaise doesn't need any sugar and most brands that don't have sugar are like $11 for an 8oz jar. So I started making it myself at home. I also started making bread which later turned into a hobby, but now I can't eat the store bread because it's too sweet. I even make my own jam now and I know what you're gonna say "but jam is like... mostly sugar", but I'll have you know that jam tastes WAY better with half the sugar that it's typically made with. It's an art form to get it thick without adding more sugar, but it's worth it. Looking back, I know most people can't make all this shit and it's really sad that people can't buy things with less sugar at the store without paying an arm and a leg. It really says a lot about our society that this is true.
I made blackberry jam for the first time this year. I saw the suggested sugar to put in and was blown away, used 1/3 of that, it's still quite sweet
