@guardeddon Ahh ok... that still seems like a very odd distinction to make though. Not trying to give you a hard time, just trying to understand why yoru phrasing it that way or what information your trying to convey.
Why is it different if the sugar gets in there as part of some other ingredient or in its own? If at home I add cane syrup to my food it doesnt count as added sugar cause its just juice from a plant? But if i dry it out first it counts as sugar?
Are you just trying to say store bought sauce tends to have more overall sugar content then when you make it at home because they use a recipe that is higher in sugar content? If so that makes sense then but wouldnt apply here, its a restaurant and home made most likely.
