    Does anyone know why Bangladesh had zero added sugar?

    Could it be that Bangladesh has stricter regulations?

    Edit: it seems I was wrong. I thought when I read this yesterday it said Bangladesh had no sugar, but looking it up today, that’s no longer the case.

      @alvvayson where does it say there’s none in Bangladesh?

      There’s even more sugar in Nestle formula in Bangladesh than there is in India.

        You are correct.

        I could swear that when I read the primary source yesterday, it said Bangladesh had zero sugar.

        But going to the link, that’s no longer the case.

        Either I was wrong or they corrected it.
