Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. "One sack of the white stuff -- granulated, not cubed." I'm counting on you here. What ingredient comes in white, brown, granulated, and confectioner's varieties, as well as cubes?"
...1. Oatmeal 2. Salt 3. Sugar 4. Flour Although a host of substitutes have been invented, common table sugar, or sucrose, remains a tried and true way to satisfy one's sweet tooth! Granulated white sugar, a staple for use in cooking and baking, is derived primarily from sugar cane and sugar beet. These refined sugar crystals can be ground into a very fine powder to make confectioner's, or powdered, sugar, which is typically sold mixed with corn starch to keep it from caking. Confectioner's sugar comes in handy to dust sweet treats, and is also used to make icing. Brown sugar is either sugar that is not completely refined, or it is created by adding molasses to refined white sugar. Sugar cubes are conveniently formed for sweetening drinks, like coffee or tea.
