Preface
There are few substances on Earth as ordinary—and
as extraordinary—as sugar.
It hides in our memories, in our holidays, in the
rituals that define comfort and love. Yet behind
every spoonful lies a global story: empires rising
and falling, economies reshaped, and human desire
quietly rewired.
Sweet Fix is not a book about nutrition or health; it
is a cultural exploration of how sweetness became a
symbol—of joy, of luxury, of control, and of craving.
From ancient honey rituals to neon-lit convenience
stores, sugar has followed us like a faithful
companion and a subtle teacher.
This book traces that journey: how sweetness
shaped our sense of happiness, our industries, and
even our emotional vocabulary.
To understand sugar is to understand the human
condition—the search for reward, the chase for
comfort, the rhythm between pleasure and
restraint.
