> it is impossible to avoid a diet in western society that relies on high quantities of sugar as a lynchpin for mass produced food.

I live in the western society you describe and enjoy a diet with no added sugar.

How?

I prepare my own food from fresh ingredients.

Yeah I'm very confused.

I think the commenter is just an unimaginative American. If you actually cook food from actual ingredients it's not difficult at all to avoid sugar.

You can even bake your own bread.
