Granulated or white sugar is highly refined cane or beet sugar!.
Granulated sugar is also available in cubes or tablets ofvarious sizes, as well as a variety of textures!.
Today's brown sugar is white sugar combined with MOLASSES, which gives it a soft texture!.
The two most commonly marketed styles of brown sugar are light and dark, with some manufacturers providing variations in between!. In general, the lighter the brown sugar, the more delicate the flavor!. The very dark or "old-fashioned"style has a more intense molasses flavor!.
Brown sugar is usually sold in 1-pound boxes or plastic bags!. The latter help the sugar retain it's moisture and keeps it soft!.
Hardened brown sugar can be resoftened by placing it with an apple wedge in a plastic bag and sealing tightly for 1 to 2 days!. I also have placed a slice of fresh bread in with the sugar and had good results!. Another way to soften is to place it in your microwave and heat for a few
seconds!.
A firmly packed cup of brown sugar may be substituted for 1 cup granulated sugar!.
Both granulated and liquid brown sugar are also now available!.
Neither of these forms should be substituted for regular brown sugar in recipes!.
As far as 'healthiness' neither is healthier than the other and cosumption of both should be limited!.
Hope this helps!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Brown sugar still has the molasses in it from the cane!.
Cane sugar is refined to remove the molasses and other products from it, leaving only the white sucrose!. Brown sugar is made by either leaving the molasses in the sugar or by adding it back to the white sugar!. Adding it back is the normal method!. Dark brown sugar has more molasses added in than regular brown sugar!.
EDIT: If you ever come upon a packet of raw sugar, then take a look at it!. You'll notice it is yellowish in colour!. That's due to it still having the molasses in it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Granulated or white sugar is highly refined cane or beet sugar!.
This free-flowing sweetener is the most common form both for table use and for cooking!.
Granulated sugar is also available in cubes or tablets ofvarious sizes, as well as a variety of textures!.
Superfine sugar, known in Britain as castor (or caster)sugar, is more finely granulated!. Because it dissolves almost instantly, superfine sugar is perfect for making meringues and sweetening cold liquids!. It can be substituted for regular granulated sugar cup for cup!.

It's the amount of refining that's been done!.
You're unusual in that you cannot taste the difference!. I find brown sugar richer tasting by a huge margin!. The molasses has not yet been processed out of it!.
Neither is healthier than the other, and we shouldn't consume much of any type of sugar!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think white sugar is healthier in comparison to brown, cause it doesn't pass so many prossess as to get it brown!.

It has absolutely nothing to do with which is more refined today--brown sugar is simply white sugar with molasses added to it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
