**Brown Sugar is better than White Sugar
**The brown sugar sold at grocery stores is actually white granulated sugar with added molasses. Yes, brown sugar contains minute amounts of minerals. But unless you eat a gigantic portion of brown sugar every day, the mineral content difference between brown sugar and white sugar is absolutely insignificant. The idea that brown and white sugar have big differences is another common nutrition myth

Please add yours.

I hope it’s not true for the desi- brown sugar (known as Shakkar in Pak) because I guess it *is *unrefined form of sugar.

I noticed this too btw, bought store packed brown sugar and once added it to water and forgot to stir for a while. There was a layer of brown color on top and the sugar turned white.
