The composition is the same because the natural sugar in the cane stalk or beet root is separated from the rest of the plant material by physical methods. Also they both require heating up the juice to separate the sugar from it. Along with the sugar being washed filtered, and dried.

Type your answer here... Four letters. B-E-E-T and C-A-N-E.

Disregarding the moronic answer above, the mono-, di-, and trisaccharides are all called sugars, and there are many of them. The polysaccharides above the tri- level are referred to as starches, cellulose and glycogen.

So, the difference between beet sugar and cane sugar (or any other sugar, such as maple sugar, corn sugar, etc.) is the particular saccharide (sugar), or mixture of saccharides that occur in that particular plant.

They all have similarities in chemical structure, and they all have a sweet taste until you pass the tri- level at which point they become starchy, or indigestible.
