> The difference between sugar and nicotine is that sugar isn't addictive

~40% of our population is obese and another 35% or so are overweight and we don't regulate it at all in any capacity (marketing to kids, packaging, etc).

Oh I'm super on the train that sugar needs to be regulated. But the sugar industry has strongly corrupted US legislation, so good luck.

While I agree obesity etc. are problems, I would argue that this is due to sugar's ubiquity rather than its addictive qualities.
