Sugar is what yeast eats. Good to use a bit in a yeast starter. It will
multiply faster and a tiny bit will not make your bread product sweeter.

Without sugar there would be no beer, wine or any adult beverages.

If there was no wine available to have with dinner, people would be
forced to learn how to cook better food.
