Good point. It's pretty much impossible to suddenly go sugar free forever. Also I want to celebrate special occasions. But I don't want to get sucked into sugar dependency again.
I have detailed records of my sugar intake for the last 18 months and the longest time I've gone is 7 days.

Basically sugar free means never eating packaged food again. I don’t know how these companies get away with it. The whole misguided fat-free craze of the 1990s led to substitution with sugar, which is worse.

If you do it correctly, then when you allow yourself to ingest sugar again, more than the absolute bare minimum will disgust you and you will gain an appreciation for "bland"

@previous (G)
thats cuz people generally used to eat the skin too, which has fiber to offset the sugar. People nowadays tend to peel the apple.
Also almost all fruits these days are specifically being bred to contain more sugar. i went to a new store today and they had grapes labeled as cotton candy. absolute semitism.
