Cane sugar is the most common MRT-tested substance in the American food supply. Our analysis found it in 58% of all grocery products — more than any other trigger on the 176-substance MRT panel.
Sugar appears under dozens of label names: sucrose, evaporated cane juice, turbinado, demerara, muscovado, and raw sugar are all forms of cane sugar that trigger the same MRT response. Even products marketed as “no added sugar” may contain cane sugar derivatives.
If cane sugar is on your Red or Yellow list, your grocery options shrink dramatically. The product table below shows every item in our database that contains it — sorted by total trigger count so you can see which products are otherwise clean versus which ones pile multiple triggers together.
