Where the sugar comes from: Pizza Hut BBQ Americano Sharing Stuffed Crust pizza

All 42g counts as free sugar. Pizza Hut does not separate naturally occurring sugar from added sugar, so Boone counts the full figure.

NHS daily free sugar limits: 30g for adults and children 11+, 24g age 7 to 10, 19g age 4 to 6.
