Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Idag är socker inte det minsta lyxigt, utan en av de billigaste råvarorna. Vi berättar om sockrets historia, om det ursprungliga gräset, om sockerrörets vandring över jorden, om indierna, araberna, om sockret som medicin, om kolonier och slavhandel, och om sockerbetans koppling till Napoleon. Mats Olsson, sockerbetsodlare i Skåne, berättar om odlingen förr och nu. Och gör en sockerbetslykta i stil med halloweenpumpor... Olof Dahlgren, fabrikschef på Örtofta sockerbruk i Eslöv i Skåne, tar oss runt på fabriken och visar hur betorna blir socker. Fabriken är från slutet av 1800-talet då betsockret slog igenom i Sverige.
