I don't need your approval or your belief. Facts are facts and in this case, I create the fact by the way I ingest sugar, so it's going to remain a fact I create with or without you believing it.

PS Yes, most are now 4# but at the Kroger one brand, I think the Kroger brand is still 5#. I don't keep the bag as I pour it into a container, but I know I have to actually read the bags to be sure to get the right one. If there are no 5# bags where I'm buying that day, I buy a 10# bag and it lasts... two weeks, go figure.
