    Such a pity you didn't get the slides in. Otherwise, an excellent lecture!

    Very interesting, thank you. Shame about the filming which doesn't include the slides. This is the side of the history of sugar that people find difficult to hear. If you want a sanitized history of sugar which doesn't put slavery and the slave trade at the core of it, then look somewhere else. I would hope that whoever lands on this by accident, listens till the end and reflects on the impact that the production of sugar has had on millions of Africans' lives. This may also be a wake-up call on how damaging sugar is to public health,

    Sometimes you'd wonder wether any product should really be imported from a country to another

      I appreciate it, thanks.
      That self-centered assclown just kept going on, and on, and on... I finally thought to myself "What the f***!? Dude, you're not a politician, get on with the show! Wasting time is not evergreen." I could feel my blood pressure rising. 😂
      Again, thank you.

    I'm going to watch/listen to this again! I am aware, however, where we, the human race, is now. Overpopulation by humans is going to be the end of the age of mammals, I totally fear. Cruelty i.e. slavery is separate from the cookie cutter syndrome (make more) of what injustice to life is to come, I fear. This is a great subject personally for me, however--ra ra ra!

      Fertility rates are dropping so I wonder if overpopulation will be a problem or not in the upcoming decades.

    Disappointing. This is not about the history of sugar. Where and when did it start? Who developed it first. No wonder there are no comments.

      Sorry, read his book which is called How Sugar Corrupted the World. He has a very detailed treatise of the origins there.

      Sugarcane was domesticated in Papua new Guinea.
      It then spread across the South and Southeast Asia. I guess boiling the cane juice was done since the domestication happened but Indians were the first people to convert it into jaggery (unrefined brown sugar). Then they also created the crystalline sugar.
