When we were all kids, we thought of sugar as something white, grainy and sweet. I never wondered where sugar came from. I knew it came from a plant called the sugar cane but that was all. I never gave thought about it until I my brother asked me what sugar is. I told him that it is made from a plant called the sugar cane and I tried to think of something else but I couldn't. That was it. It finally made me curious and I looked it up on the internet and I found out sugar canes are actually vegetables!
After I read about the sugar cane, I was very shocked. I would have never guessed that sugar came from a vegetable! But now that I think about it, it all makes sense. I mean, where else would sugar come from? Now that I learned a little more about sugar, I'm going to look at sugar a little differently. :)
