In this video, we’re going to talk about what country consumes the most sugar.

The country that consumes the most sugar (per person) is the United Arab Emirates.

In 2017, people in the United Arab Emirates consumed 1855 thousand metric tons of sugar. With a population of a little over 9 million people, that means that each citizen consumes just over one pound (0.5kg) of sugar per day.

To reach one pound of sugar each day, you would have to consume:
• 100g chocolate bar (50g sugar)
• 2 cups of ice cream (100g sugar)
• 1 sandwich (50g sugar)
• 2 burgers (100g sugar)
• 2 pizza slices (100g sugar
• 1 liter of cola (100g sugar)
(total = 500g or 1lb of sugar)

This explains why the UAE has one of the highest rates of obesity in the world. One-third of their population is severely overweight. Not to mention the massive amount of diabetes that has spread throughout the country.
