A 12-ounce can of soda has 40 grams of sugar, the equivalent of 10 sugar packets. There are about 15 calories/sugar packet, meaning the average 150 calories in a 12-ounce can of soda completely come from sugar.

Note, most soda manufacturers don't use real sugar, instead using high fructose corn syrup as a sweetener.
