In this article I received today (thank you, Ross!) you can see that certain foods might not be as "healthy" as their manufacturers claim. We might be consuming more sugar than we think.
Just imagine that you eat a chicken salad (loaded with sugar), maybe you drink a bit of wine, and then you congratulate yourself for this seemingly "healthy" choice by consuming an ice-cream after your meal, preferably low in fat. Then let's have coffee, maybe in the form of a Frappuccino from Starbucks.
