How to play
-
Read the product, then the portion. A spoonful and the whole jar are two different rounds. -
Pull the stack up until it looks right. One cube is 4 grams, and you can type the number instead. -
Lock it in. The true stack builds up next to yours, and the miss stands there as a factor.
The reveal
3.13× too low
A 250 ml glass of apple juice carries 25 g of sugar, and none of it was added: it came with the fruit. Source ›
The middle of 326 measured apple juices is 10 g per 100 ml. A glass holds two and a half of those, so 25 g of sugar, and at 4 g a cube that comes to six and a quarter. The World Health Organization names roughly 25 g of free sugars a day for an adult, and that is the dashed line in the picture.

Questions
- What is a daily food guessing game?
- A game that hands you one number about food a day and asks you to estimate it. Here the number is sugar: one real product in one real portion, and a stack of cubes to answer with.
- How much sugar is in a can of cola?
- About 35 grams in a 330 ml can, close to nine cubes. The number is the middle of 118 measured colas, not one brand.
- Is it free?
- Yes, and you never need an account. Past days live in an archive; your first archive day is free.
- How is a round scored?
- As a factor with a direction. Half of what is really in there reads 2× too low. No points, and no streak nagging.
- Where do the numbers come from?
- Open Food Facts, harvested once and frozen. Each round takes the median of a whole category, and the daily line is WHO’s 25 grams of free sugars for an adult.
