Why are sugar-free foods more expensive?

Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to their lifestyle and will not choose to eat some foods with high salt, oil and sugar. Many people will devote themselves to the low-sugar diet that is very popular now, and even all kinds of snacks have introduced sugar-free flavors. However, many netizens find that sugar-free foods are more expensive to sell. The following small series will share the reasons for this.

First, new technologies and proportions When producing sugar-free foods, it is often necessary to add new technologies and material formulas. Sugar-free food costs more, so the price is more expensive than sugar. When we shop in the supermarket, we can find that the general commodity packaging bags are printed with sugar-free, that is, there is no sucrose, but there is no way for any food to be completely sugar-free. In order to meet the psychological needs of modern people, many businesses use sugar-free gimmicks. In fact, the sugar content is very high. Everyone must keep their eyes open when shopping, and don't be blinded by these foods.

Second, meet the needs of specific people. We all know that there is a market where there is demand. Nowadays, many biscuit cokes have introduced sugar-free versions, which are aimed at specific groups of people. Because these people will pay more attention to the food ingredient list when shopping, they will choose to buy sugar-free food. Out of people's psychological needs, merchants will certainly raise the price of sugar-free products in order to earn more profits. From this perspective, the high price of sugar-free food is also normal.

Third, sugar-free does not mean that there is no sugar at all. It is not difficult to find that some foods are sweet although they are sugar-free. This is because sweeteners are added to these foods. Many foods on the market now contain sweeteners. Sweetener will not be absorbed by human body and will not add extra burden to human body. Sugar-free products will still contain sugar, so everyone should pay attention to the right amount when eating, especially if diabetics eat too much, their blood sugar will still rise.
