Answer:

"A perfect taste made possible by the most brutal labor."

Explanation:

In their book "Sugar Changed The World", Marc Aronson and his wife marina Budhos narrates how the discovery of sugar from cane led to one of the most bloodiest histories of slavery and oppression. The slaves working on the sugar plantations had to overcome and suffer such great heights from their cruel masters/ overseers.

The given passage show the difference of sugar and honey. Though both are sweet and provides happiness to people or anyone who consumes it, their existence/ source are opposites. Unlike honey which is quite expensive, Europeans prefer to buy the much cheaper sugar, which has a whole cycle of people working all over the world. The final product of sugar is only possible after many people were tortured and even killed to get it right. Considering the amount of labor and hardships that led to the production of this perfect taste loved by everyone all over the world, the best quote for the authors' claim and purpose will be-

"A perfect taste made possible by the most brutal labor."
