Do you consider one little finger sized sachet of sugar to equal “one sugar”?

1. Yes some places will use decent sugar like Silver Spoon sachets, others will use some piss poor effort of a sugar where I’ll need 4 sachets to make it work

2. Always use 3 x sachets.

   Unless they’re the expensive hotel ones which are actually a teaspoons worth.

3. No 2-3 sachets for a teaspoon full

4. I like 2 decent sugars in my tea. The sachets in my local hospital are tiny. Need like 5 of them.

5. Nah, half a teaspoon per sachet personally.

   I still worry people think I’m a scruff for putting 4 in my large coffee in the morning though.

6. A rounded teaspoon of sugar is about 5g.

   Most sugar sachets are 2.5-3g. Some fuller sticks may be 3.5g and some smaller sachets may be 2g.

   You don’t see cubes very often, but when you do they will probably be 4-5g each.

   TL;DR your estimation is pretty much bang on.
