Preferred term

1975 sugar shortage  

Definition

  • Once a very rare commodity reserved for special occasions, sugar and sugar-sweetened products are now widely consumed throughout the world. The popularity of sweets in the United States is especially immense, but many of these products are not actually sweetened with sugar, but rather with high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS). [Source: Encyclopedia of Consumption and Waste: The Social Science of Garbage; Sugar Shortage, 1975]
