A very small amount of sugar greatly improves the flavor and smell of sprouts and cabbage. It reacts with the sulfur.
Unfortunately, I can't eat sugar. Keto diet. Pre-diabetic. (I misspent my youth eating quarter-pound bars of chocolate.)
We're talking a very small pinch here. Not nearly enough to taste. After it binds with the sulfur it won't be sugar any more anyway.
It's to improve the taste and especially the smell when cooking that keeps people from eating it, which reduces it to zero.
