The maximum recommended is not really defined. The FDA recommends 300 grams of carbohydrates for a 2000 calorie diet, but not all of that should be sugar. Instead of worrying about grams of sugar, concern yourself with where those grams are coming from- are the calories from nutritious fruit, or is it instead from corn syrup, powdered sugar, cane juice, granulated sugar, enriched wheat flour or some other processed sugar source? You can safely eliminate all processed sugar from your diet, replacing these calories instead with fruit.

How many cups of sugar in 2 liters of Pepsi?

A two liter bottle of Pepsi contains approximately 8 servings (of 8 oz each). Each serving has 28 grams of sugar. Eight servings x 28 grams = 224 grams. One cup of sugar is 8 oz which equals 226 grams. Your bottle of Pepsi wil therefore contain one whole cup of sugar. A great exercise to visualize the amount of sugar in soda for kids is by letting them guess how many sugar cubes a bottle contains. Each sugar cube weighs approximately four grams. A two liter bottle of Pepsi would therefore contain a total of 56 sugar cubes.
