Description United Sugars is the stuff of dentists' nightmares -- or dreams -- depending on how you look at it. The company is a marketing cooperative of Midwestern beet and sugar cane producers, and it provides a distribution system to help its member companies get their products to food manufacturers and retailers. In addition, United Sugars offers information for sugar users about the different forms sugar takes (granulated, powdered, brown, and liquid) and identifies which types of sugar work best in industries such as baking, beverages, and prepared foods. United Sugars is made up of American Crystal Sugar, Minn-Dak Farmers Cooperative, and U.S. Sugar.
