Thanks for sharing the link. I have not seen this documentary.
In one of the videos on YouTube of Dr. Lustig, he was talking to food manufacturers. He mentioned that a doctor he knows sat in on meetings at the Big Food Corp he worked for wherein they tried to figure out how to hide the sugar on the nutrition label. Lustig said that is the reason why sugar goes by so many different names. So they list, for example, maltose, dextrose, and sucrose on a label and it appears further down in the ingredients list. According to Lustig, if they listed them as "sugar" it might appear as the first ingredient in the list!

Great suggestion! High fructose corn syrup is in more than 90% of foods in the grocery store. We need to eat real food and take control of our health. In one of the videos I watched on Youtube with Dr. Lustig, a woman who worked in marketing for General Mills started crying and said she was in a consumer focus group and a mom said she liked feeding her children Fruit Loops for Breakfast because she felt good about giving her children fruit in the morning.

It is amazing how the taste buds of "society" have become de-conditioned to the taste of sugar because, exactly as you say, it is in everything! Products that come to mind immediately are the REAL taste of tomato sauce and Peanut Butter that have no sugar added. Why add sugar one might ask? Because it is highly addictive and thus people eat more and the food manufacturers make more money.
Ugh, I even have a challenge finding dried fruit that has no sugar added!
