A comparison by equal fresh weight disproves the claim that garlic has more sugar than sugar beet. The Norwegian food composition table lists 1.6 g of total sugars per 100 g of raw garlic, while sugar beet roots typically contain 16–18% sucrose by fresh weight at harvest. That means sugar beet contains roughly ten times as much. [1, 2]
