Here’s the scary part
If we are talking a 1 liter bottle of water it’s less sugar than in most lemonades and sodas.
Those aren’t fit for human consumption either tho

Because one scoop of sugar is added? You know, the post on top of the page?
Did you read the post?
always wondered of the nutritional value of these, left out by people with good intentions, but probably doing more harm than good with those empty calories
My understanding is sugar water is fine for hummingbirds, but the red dye often added to it is not.
You are correct. If you feed hummingbirds, dissolve a 1:4 ratio of sugar to water in summer (so 1 cup sugar to four cups water) or a 1:3 ratio in winter for extra calories/energy. Don’t use the bottled red stuff, it’s bad for them :)
Hummingbirds need all the calories they can get. Their calorie requirements per mass are somewhere in the realm of 50x greater than a human’s.
i am aware, but sugar water in 100% calories and no protein, essential fats, vitamins or minerals, whatsoever
Biology is different for lots of different creatures. Just because we need certain things in our diet doesn’t mean birds need those same things in the same quantities from the same sources. We are, after all, quite different from birds.
Kind of disgusting
