But it wouldn't be the first time I used logic to end up completely wrong about what being "more american" would be. And clearly it is SOMETHING cultural. Also, yours was the 300th comment I've received on this site, thank you! Happy holidays.

Isn't most sugar cane from Hawai'i while sugar beets are used most every where else sugar is produced. Perhaps sugar cane is more "American." I could be totally wrong though. Happy holidays!

I think you're doing an excellent job of spreading the truth about science, in an easy-to-understand way. Thanks, James! And Merry Christmas!
