The objective of this study was to investigate the total sugar content in take-out foods by using HPLC analysis.Samples of take-out food were collected from six regions in Korea (Seoul, Gyeonggi-do, Chungcheong-do, Gang-won-do, Jeolla-do, Gyeongsang-do). The samples consisted of 30 main dishes (12 Chinese dishes and 18 flour-baseddishes) and 19 desserts (11 rice cakes and 8 breads). In case of Chinese food, the maximum total sugar content ofTangsuyuk, Ganjajang, Jajangmyeon, and Gun-mandu was 10.346g/100g, 2.409g/100g, 1.589g/100g, and 1.988g/100g respectively. The total sugar content in seasoned Chinese food with sauces was higher than that of the otherChinese food. In case of flour-based food as a main dish, flour-based food seasoned with red pepper paste and manysauces such as Tteokbokki, Naengmyeon, and Guksue had a higher total sugar content than Mandutguk, Tteok-manduguk, and Udong. In particular, Hoe-naengmyeon had the highest total sugar content of 7.194g/100g. Also,desserts (rice cakes and breads), except for Garaetteok, had a high total sugar content with the highest in Glutinousdoughnut and Glutinous rice tteok with red bean paste, which among all the regions analyzed had a maximum totalsugar content of 19.602g/100g from Gyeongsang-do and 30.339g/100g from Seoul respectively.
