How many spoonfuls of sugar in a can of soda?

Answer 1

According to an article on MSNBC.com, one teaspoon of sugar equals 4 grams and 16 calories. On a can of Coke (that I just drank,) it says there are 39 grams of sugars. 39 divided by 4 gives you 9.75 teaspoons of sugar in one can of Coke.

Despite prior indications to the contrary, the original answer above is correct. There are 39g of sugars in a 12oz can of Coca Cola. The assertion that Coca Cola nutrition information is always expressed as an 8oz cup may have been true back in the days prior to the current "Nutrition Facts" labeling, but this is no longer the case. As a general rule, manufacturers must now use a serving size that is either a single unit (1 can = 1 serving), or easily divisable (1 bottle = 2 servings). Coke's serving size = 1 can = 12oz. Some of the confusion may be due to the marking above the Nutrition Facts label - "VERY LOW SODIUM 35mg OR LESS PER 240 mL (8 fl oz)". If you look carefully at the label, you will see that this statement is actually not contained within the Nutrition Facts at all.

Answer 2

This depends on the size of the can.

In coke, there is approx 8-10 in half a litre.

Answer 3

It depends on the type of soda. Diet sodas don't have as much added sugars as a normal soda. 1 can of coca cola(normal) has 9 teaspoonfuls of sugar in it! Watch what you drink!
