its just simple supply and demand at work. Most people know that the cost of things is affected by supply and demand. But what often people dont take into account in regards to supply and demand is the demand of something can cause the amount available to always be so high that the cost to buy it will always be cheap. when there is not enough the price goes up when there is more then enough the cost decreases. This is what normally people think of the concept of supply and demand. When something is in such demand such as sugar. The amount needed is often so great that the amount of it available is always more then enough. Thus always cheap. The demand of sugar causes its cheapness. IN first world countries sugar is one of those things that will always remain cheap. Until the plants that are required to make sugar go extinct that is. Or the human race loses its love addiction to sugar.
@@jentebonnema2244 80 percent of the worlds sugar is made from sugar cane. Sugar beets represent only 20 percent of the source of sugar.

Like you could probably make sugar by simply boiling the juice (which from what I have heard tastes amazing) but it would be brown, almost black, full of impurities and probably not the best all around. Adding lime for example really helps. This kind of an industrial process not only makes very pure sugar (which might be what your consumers want even though I like brown sugar more) but also with nice uniform crystals (in 19th century you would buy sugar in loaves that were pretty hard and required manual breaking and grinding to make something you could powder a cake with) and what is the most important thing, very efficiently in large amount.
@@susanbrogan2517 That would be panela or rapadura. Dehydrated sugar cane juice into a solid block which retains its impurities. It is a staple food in my country, I love to use it instead of refined sugar in my hot/cold drinks.
No one actually figured it out. It was a collective effort by chemist and physicist over a period of time. Obtaining sugar from sugar cane isn't hard but don't forget that most of the process is removing impurities from it.
@Wikkitt Klown You do realize those same chemical is what helps clean the impurities right from the sugar right?. And as for the oversize machine helps process it properly
I work in a sugar beet processing plant and its very similar to the way the cane juice is processed. Our facility is a much bigger scale as we produce on average 1150 - 1250 tons of white sugar a day compared to their 400 ton a day in this video. Still pretty cool to see the difference/similarities.
@@LitajasmineLike everything it's ok if you consume it in a manageable amounts but if you eat a ton of sugar daily your gonna develop a ton of problems down the line
Makichika Actually Carbohydrates/Sugars are the one macronutrient humans can live without. Protein and Fat are the only two necessary ones. The body can either run off of fat or sugar, but the body has to get fat, our ancestors ran off of fat most of the time, sugar was a treat they would store as energy if they could find it.
Makichika there are other sources. Table sugar is unnecessary and our tolerance is horrible resulting in needing more sugar consumed. A can of soda does just about the same thing a can of beer does yet we willingly give our children a can of coke or pepsi. Fat being made the bad guy of the heart disease war also caused sugar contents to rise to supplement the taste that was lost in low fat foods. Sugar causes more issues in the human body with inflammation at the root of a lot of issues. Especially diabetes... but no “without sugar you die” nope with all the sugar that’s in all the processed food out there. We are already dying dude.

Yes, we also used to have sugarcane plants in our yard when I was in Grade School and High School. We would simply cut off a mature stalk (approx.2 inches in diameter), cut it in segments, peel off the shiiny bark, and then chew on the white, fibrous flesh to extract the sweet, refreshing juice.

Dude, this stuff is underrated for falling asleep, and is like something that is either intentionally fascinating or intentionally boring-to-sleep. Either way, I LOVE HOW-IT’S-MADE!!!
i love this because my dad would show me how its made when i went to sleep when i was younger. i specifically remember the ham leg one. my favorite was the toilet paper video because of the cutting arm
I live near a couple of sugar mills, and they stink when processing sugar. As a kid, we would go to the sugar mill to dig for worms from the bagasse piles. Earthworms from a bagasse pile, are the biggest I've ever seen. We would then go fishing with those worms.
@Hydro Aegis his story sounds legit though especially when he said they used to dig up worms to go fishing, it reminded me of my childhood cause I used to dig up worms to to use for fishing.
Its a usable product without doing this, so its not just to get sugar. People drink raw sugar cane juice; just squashed raw cane. Add it your food, run it over a fire, dry in a pot over night...and its noticeable it takes all these different forms. Then its just a matter of refinement.
@God Howard Only raw honey or organic stevia leaves pulverized are the only healthy sweeteners, the stuff selled at supermarkets are trash that taste bad and give you diabetes as much as regular sugar...
in asia we enjoy sugar cane juice under the hot sunny day , is like isotonic drink for us and much more natural natural.😍 i love sugar cane juice and is not as sweet as sugar do... weird, uh!
Being a Brazilian it gives me the BEST WAY to taste it. We drink the juice with lemon and ice. TOTALLY NATURAL. We have the plant generally in our garden, so when we want, we just extract the juice and drink it.
We live near a sugar mill when we were kids. The mill dump mud press in nearby fields. when the mud press age a kind of mushroom grows.We use to collect mushrooms and give it to our mother and she cooks it for dinner.
Alot of people have no clue on the process of this, claiming it causes cancer or other diseases. To simplify this video: 1 - sugar cane juice is extracted 2 - sugar cane juice is refined with chemicals (to remove impurities), and also filtered i think. 3 - sugar cane juice is boiled (concentration of sugar rises from 15% to 60%, causes it to get thicker) 4 - already made crystals are added in the paste to help form new crystals, this is known as 'inoculating' Now if youve ever paid attention in physics, you would know that if a solution is saturated and gets cooled down, it forms crystals. This happens because the solvent cant dissolve all sugar. Generally the warmer it is, the more it can dissolve. This process can be boosted by adding already formed crystals. 5 - crystals grow (crystals are almost 100% sugar only, might have small impurities tho, causing it to look 'brownish') 6 - paste gets centrifuged, separating the not crystallized paste and the formed crystals 7 - crystals get washed with a small amount of water 8 - crystals are dried, it is now ready for packaging Enjoy your cup of tea/coffee
After watching this video I'm still convinced that sugar is to be blamed for most modern world diseases and most health care costs. I don't get your point. I'm off from sugar for 4 years now
RUclips recommended last week: how to make a pencil. RUclips recommend this week: how to make a sugar. RUclips knows how much I'm useless person and trying to make me educated every week :).
Sugar cane fiber can also be turned into 3d printing filament called pla, or poly lactic acid. but most of the time the cane fiber or "bagasse" is burnt in the boilers which is what powers the sugar mill
In that case, I guess you don't want to know that artificial sweeteners like aspartame are made from the feces of GMO E. Coli bacteria; or that it breaks down into methanol which quickly converts into formaldehyde in the body...
you know what is calcite ? it is the property of high grade lime (calcite) that gives the crystal formation ! did you notice lime powder was added into the bla bla (machine) ???
Types of sugar we use- Granulated Sugar: Most people use this type of white sugar on a daily basis, and it’s most often used in baking. Granulated sugar has all of the molasses content removed, giving it the white color. Brown Sugar: Dark and light brown sugars retain much of the naturally occurring molasses-the more molasses, the darker the sugar. Golden Sugar: This is a brand-new sugar recently developed by Domino. It’s a less-processed version of granulated sugar. It retains some of the naturally occurring molasses, but it can be used cup for cup in place of white sugar. Learn more about Golden Sugar here. Powdered or Confectioners’ Sugar: This light, fluffy sugar is made by grinding up granulated sugar and adding a small amount of cornstarch to prevent clumping. Raw Sugar: Also called turbinado sugar, this product is usually light brown in color and has larger crystals. It’s filtered only minimally to retain much of its natural molasses content.
I like how the machines are explained in what it does as well. Other uploaders just plays music throughout the whole video but don't explain and have a "walkthrough"
@@bradleythomsen3083 Absolutely not. Bleaching does not mean adding animal bones. Watch the video here again. Did you research your facts about brown sugar? Wikipedia defines brown sugar as "Brown sugar is often produced by adding sugarcane molasses to completely refined white sugar crystals to more carefully control the ratio of molasses to sugar crystals and to reduce manufacturing costs. Brown sugar prepared in this manner is often much coarser than its unrefined equivalent and its molasses may be easily separated from the crystals by simply washing to reveal the underlying white sugar crystals; in contrast, with unrefined brown sugar, washing will reveal underlying crystals which are off-white due to the inclusion of molasses."
What value would showing how sugar is made do? About as useful as teaching kids physics. The majority of them won't ever use it in their lives and all you're doing is making them frustrated. We should teach them how to handle their finances, how the court system works, and how to take care of a home.
I watched this video about 3 years ago and from that day I have not had ANY sugar. This video shows exactly how they're poisoning us. A wonderful result of not eating sugar, is I don't eat any processed food now either (because every processed food - in a jar, carton, box, container - has some form of sugar in it). The best result though of eliminating sugar from my diet ... Every day I feel better than the day before. And my brain power, well, it's off the charts. If you were to name something in your diet that causes inflammation or health problems, things like gluten, dairy or soy might come to mind. But sugar is the universal inflammatory. Now, go raise your standards and eliminate this processed product. You will thank yourself!!

Well of course, its literally sugar crystals extracted from juice. A lot of things in nature have sugar in them, but theres no such thing as a pure sugar solution

@@ChristmasEve777 why bother making something inherently extremely unhealthy slightly less unhealthy, if you need something sweet a bit of honey is a much better way to go
@@ezodragon hmmm honey is good but there is nothing wrong with sugarcane. It's also natural. It's all the processing they do on it that makes it unhealthy. Even honey can be made unhealthy.

I’ve been watching this since 2012. I remember falling asleep while watching people make a ham leg, and I also remember how they made coca-cola. Dude, this stuff is underrated for falling asleep, and is like something that is either intentionally fascinating or intentionally boring-to-sleep. Either way, I LOVE HOW-IT’S-MADE!!!
i love this because my dad would show me how its made when i went to sleep when i was younger. i specifically remember the ham leg one. my favorite was the toilet paper video because of the cutting arm
Lmao I literally took two naps today because of these videos, they’re so interesting but also sleep inducing
I’m here for sleep!

They left out the very end of the production line: fatty liver, obesity, diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
I live near a couple of sugar mills, and they stink when processing sugar. As a kid, we would go to the sugar mill to dig for worms from the bagasse piles. Earthworms from a bagasse pile, are the biggest I've ever seen. We would then go fishing with those worms.
@we up ^
"this unverified anecdote from a random unknown person confirms my biases, therefore I must be correct."
thank you for sharing, enjoyed this little story!
@Hydro Aegis his story sounds legit though especially when he said they used to dig up worms to go fishing, it reminded me of my childhood cause I used to dig up worms to to use for fishing.
I also dig earth worms from poultry farm they are also biggest ive ever seen
@@hydroaegis6658 I’m dead but this sums up the rest of America 😂
Im just astonished that we even thought to do all of this just to get sugar
Angelina Faye, it's also made from sugar beets; I wonder which production process is more lengthy: cane sugar or beet sugar?
The crude process is very simple, what you see here is highly refined process.
Its a usable product without doing this, so its not just to get sugar. People drink raw sugar cane juice; just squashed raw cane. Add it your food, run it over a fire, dry in a pot over night...and its noticeable it takes all these different forms. Then its just a matter of refinement.

Timestamp please ?
Aaradhya's Gaming 4:58
Alot of people have no clue on the process of this, claiming it causes cancer or other diseases.
To simplify this video:
1 - sugar cane juice is extracted
2 - sugar cane juice is refined with chemicals (to remove impurities), and also filtered i think.
3 - sugar cane juice is boiled (concentration of sugar rises from 15% to 60%, causes it to get thicker)
4 - already made crystals are added in the paste to help form new crystals, this is known as 'inoculating'
Now if youve ever paid attention in physics, you would know that if a solution is saturated and gets cooled down, it forms crystals. This happens because the solvent cant dissolve all sugar. Generally the warmer it is, the more it can dissolve. This process can be boosted by adding already formed crystals.
5 - crystals grow (crystals are almost 100% sugar only, might have small impurities tho, causing it to look 'brownish')
6 - paste gets centrifuged, separating the not crystallized paste and the formed crystals
7 - crystals get washed with a small amount of water
8 - crystals are dried, it is now ready for packaging
Enjoy your cup of tea/coffee
Wow, thank you :) Someone nice after so many idiot comments.
you forgot all the other shit they added, like sucrose.
Point no.2 also bleach with sulphur dioxide and regulate with ph level with water lime solution.
After watching this video I'm still convinced that sugar is to be blamed for most modern world diseases and most health care costs. I don't get your point. I'm off from sugar for 4 years now

Fun fact: sugar cane fiber can be turned into disposable plates, bowls and takeout containers.
Pppppppl
Sugar cane fiber can also be turned into 3d printing filament called pla, or poly lactic acid. but most of the time the cane fiber or "bagasse" is burnt in the boilers which is what powers the sugar mill
Can be. But do companies make it common? Nope. Gotta deal with gross plastic ware. :(

Types of sugar we use-
Granulated Sugar: Most people use this type of white sugar on a daily basis, and it’s most often used in baking. Granulated sugar has all of the molasses content removed, giving it the white color.
Brown Sugar: Dark and light brown sugars retain much of the naturally occurring molasses-the more molasses, the darker the sugar.
Golden Sugar: This is a brand-new sugar recently developed by Domino. It’s a less-processed version of granulated sugar. It retains some of the naturally occurring molasses, but it can be used cup for cup in place of white sugar. Learn more about Golden Sugar here.
Powdered or Confectioners’ Sugar: This light, fluffy sugar is made by grinding up granulated sugar and adding a small amount of cornstarch to prevent clumping.
Raw Sugar: Also called turbinado sugar, this product is usually light brown in color and has larger crystals. It’s filtered only minimally to retain much of its natural molasses content.
Today I learned about Golden Sugar
Muscovado is the more nutritious and healthy sugar, it's the first result from this processes before it can be turn into brown sugar and white sugar
Cool, thanks for sharing this info!

Bleaching is so unecessary
People don't want to eat brown so it's bleached. That's what brown sugar is for.
Everyone loves racist sugar
@@mitch1078 "bleaching" means adding animal bones. Brown sugar is entirely different than raw unbleached sugar.
@@bradleythomsen3083 Absolutely not. Bleaching does not mean adding animal bones. Watch the video here again. Did you research your facts about brown sugar? Wikipedia defines brown sugar as "Brown sugar is often produced by adding sugarcane molasses to completely refined white sugar crystals to more carefully control the ratio of molasses to sugar crystals and to reduce manufacturing costs. Brown sugar prepared in this manner is often much coarser than its unrefined equivalent and its molasses may be easily separated from the crystals by simply washing to reveal the underlying white sugar crystals; in contrast, with unrefined brown sugar, washing will reveal underlying crystals which are off-white due to the inclusion of molasses."

I watched this video about 3 years ago and from that day I have not had ANY sugar. This video shows exactly how they're poisoning us. A wonderful result of not eating sugar, is I don't eat any processed food now either (because every processed food - in a jar, carton, box, container - has some form of sugar in it). The best result though of eliminating sugar from my diet ... Every day I feel better than the day before. And my brain power, well, it's off the charts. If you were to name something in your diet that causes inflammation or health problems, things like gluten, dairy or soy might come to mind. But sugar is the universal inflammatory. Now, go raise your standards and eliminate this processed product. You will thank yourself!!
