When can i start giving sugar to my baby?

I've read that you shouldn't give babies sugar or salt till baby has passed at least 1 year old. But personally, I'd try to avoid sugar in baby for as long as I can. The earlier you introduce sugar, the more dependent they are and they might develop a sweet tooth and not want to eat anything else. Sugar also leads to obesity and other childhood problem so avoiding it for as long as I can is ideal but it's not realistic. Therefore, limiting sugar is the next best thing.
