I believe the point of the 60 Minutes piece was that the average American has little to no idea how much sugar they actual intake on a daily basis. It appears that it would be obvious, but just from the people that I'm around on a daily basis, they associate sugar with sweet treats and don't realize that all the processed "savory" food they inhale is also overflowing with sugar.
Plus, the cancer/sugar thing was new information for me that I found interesting from the 60 Minutes segment.
