A well-known polling organization recently conducted a survey of attitudes about sugar in cities across America. One of the biggest surprises was the wide range of guesses people made about how many calories are in a teaspoon of sugar. Most respondents thought it was 50 or 60 calories; one respondent said 1000!

Nature's very own sweetener has only 15 calories in a teaspoon – as well as all that natural taste and goodness, too! See other interesting facts about calories.
