What are the different types of sugar and where do they come from?
I know of cane sugar, beet sugar, and brown sugar, but I have no idea what they are or where they come from, or if there are other kinds of sugar. Also, could anyone tell me the difference between golden-brown and dark brown sugar? Thanks!

Cane sugar is made from sugar cane and beet sugar is made from sugar beets. A sort of elegant logic there. Brown sugar is just white sugar that hasnt been refined yet. Although today a lot of brown sugar is made by adding back molasses to white sugar. Most of the differences in sugar that you get from the store is in how much they were refined and processed. If you are concerned you should worry more about sucrose, fructose and anything that ends with -ose. These all digest differently. The worst of the lot is Corn Syrup. That stuff should be banned.
