There is a big reason parental guardians never let their children consume sugar or other processed junk food, especially before bedtime. Other than it being a risk for developing chronic illnesses, when children consume sugar or other junk food, they're usually depicted as talking really fast, running around at a constant speed, and wanting to stay up all night into the early hours of the morning playing videogames. Hilarity ensues. Contrary to popular belief, this is not Truth in Television. While excessive consumption of sugary (and fatty) food and drinks can affect a child's behavior and physical health in general, it doesn't make them hyperactive, clinically or otherwise. Part of why the association with hyperactivity and junk food is so common among parents is because these tend to be the things eaten at parties or special occasions (celebratory cake, chocolate bars, jelly, fizzy drinks, you name it) and kids, being small bundles of energy, will want to play more than usual with friends, making them excited, and that means they'll do a lot more running about. This trope then, is a prime example of correlation does not equal causation. Saying that "The kids are running around because they were eating all this sugary food" latches onto a convenient explanation while ignoring other causes, such as the environment (the party or special event), or the fact that kids tend to do this anyway, and they don't need sugar to be hyperactive — at a party, they just happen to be in constant sight of parents. This should logically also scale to teens and adults, but that never crosses parents' minds either, despite caffeine (a psychoactive drug), being something that does keep someone active, and is found in energy drinks and coffee in gyms and offices the world over. So, if anything, the blame should instead be on impulse and self-control, which takes years of learning for a kid to understand properly. Sub-Trope of Artistic License – Biology. Compare and contrast G-Rated Drug, Drunk on Milk, Frothy Mugs of Water, Intoxication Ensues, I Can't Believe It's Not Heroin!, Must Have Caffeine, Klatchian Coffee, Fake High, Mushroom Samba, and Kids Shouldn't Watch Horror Films.

In Toddlers & Tiaras and its spinoff Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, the then 6-year-old competitor Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson drinks a "healthy" blend of Mountain Dew and Red Bull, called "Go Go Juice", to give her the extra energy she needs to be a toddler beauty queen. Which is quite an unhealthy mix of caffeine and sugar for any child to ingest. "Go Go Juice" is a juice that June gave to Alana when she did pageants. In a rather meme-able moment, as soon as she drinks the concoction, Honey Boo Boo gets hyperactive and speaks nonsense very fast. | |

Lampshaded in the Cheaper by the Dozen (2003) remake, when patriarch Tom Baker promises his children that they can have fun and let loose and "eat sugar and cake and ice cream and go crazy" once their mom Kate leaves for her job. At their friend's birthday party, however, the twins Nigel and Kyle are the only ones of the Baker children to get into any of the sugary birthday party snacks like cupcakes. And once they have eaten some cupcakes, they start throwing handfuls of birthday foods from the party plates at the panicking guests just for fun. Granted the party guests were all in a panic because a pet snake for a birthday gift got loose, and Tom and his entire football team had to intervene and save the kids. Hilarity Ensues. | |

In one episode, it's revealed that Ned and Maude Flanders note This is before Maude's fatal accident. forbid their kids to eat sugar. However, Bart convinces one of the Flanders kids to eat a pixie stick; said kid immediately goes hyper, starts fighting with his brother, and calls him a "smelly head". |

The Weekenders: One episode involves Carver and his friends taking turns babysitting Carver's baby brother, Todd. On Carver's turn, when Carver isn't watching him, Todd consumes a large amount of sugar and then starts shaking as the sugar rush kicks in. The end result, Todd starts running around excitedly while rambling a fast-paced string-of-thought series of words. By the time it's Tish's turn, Carver is completely worn out from the experience. | |

What About Mimi?: In "The Stepford Twins", we're told that if the Crabdinkle twins eat candies known as "Super-Fizzle Cherry Rockets", it makes them, in Mimi's words, "go ballistic". Mimi and Bradley even tell Elaine of when the twins' kindly old aunt gave them the candy the previous year. By the time the sugar rush wore off, the aunt had lost all her teeth and had to be committed to an insane asylum, and the fire department was called in to get the twins off the roof. We finally see it in action when Jason gives the twins the candy in question, and they both shoot into the air like rockets, leaving two trails of smoke in their wake. | |

It is a recurring theme in Calvin and Hobbes that when Calvin eats his favorite cereal, Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, for breakfast (usually three bowls), he gets incredibly hyper. In one strip, Calvin's mother is seen vibrating and speaking almost incoherently slow. It turns out that, due to Calvin having eaten Chocolate-Frosted Sugar Bombs, he is now experiencing everything in Bullet Time, which concerns Hobbes as the boy walks around spasming. | |

Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends: Exaggerated with Mac. Usually the Adorably Precocious Child and Only Sane Man, he is forbidden from eating sugar precisely because of his reaction to it. Even getting a drop of sweetened food or drink is enough to make him lose all sanity and turn into a screaming, sugar-obsessed gremlin who craves more sugar, sprinting all over the place and swiping any sweets in his vicinity. In some episodes, he's literally bouncing off the walls and can lift Eduardo, who is several times Mac's size, with ease. | |

The Dresden Files: Two potions that rely on speed or energy, escape and stimulant potions, have caffeine and sugar as part of their ingredients' ingredients. Cola and chocolate-covered espresso beans, for the former, and coffee and a doughnut of unnamed flavor for the latter. (By the rules of Dresden-verse magic, the factual inaccuracy of the trope is more or less irrelevant — the fact that people believe in it allows the symbolic ingredients to work regardless.) | |

Raising Hope: In "Happy Halloween", it's revealed that giving Maw Maw too much sugar will make her think she's nine years old. In "Kidnapped", it's revealed that Burt faked his own kidnapping twenty years ago to get away from his family after a particularly grueling and hectic day. At the end, Maw Maw admits to setting everything that happened that day to break him and Virginia up, which included feeding Jimmy a lot of sugar to drive his dad bats. |

In Open Season, though Boog’s not a kid, his owner and caretaker Beth treats him as such and is not happy when he comes home in police custody under the influence of sugary junk foods. Elliot had given Boog a bite of his Woo-Hoo candy bar and the bear became hooked, causing him and Elliot to trash a mini market by having fun and eating all kinds of junk foods. After stumbling to his room in a haze similar to drunkenness, he projectile vomits on the garage window. | |

King of the Hill: Hank and a new neighbor, Wesley, both start a Straight Arrow scout group which includes Bobby and two of Wesley's sons. Hank is frustrated over Wesley's idea of activities: all taking place indoors with a fake fire made of streamers and a fan, and a teddy bear that acts as a grizzly bear. Hank would rather take the group to the outdoors to give them the real experience, which Wesley is against. Later on, when Hank takes charge of the group and gives Wesley's boys sugary sodas and treats, they both get a sugar rush and run into the forest. Hank and the others have to find them using outdoor scout skills. After finding the boys, Hank gets scolded by Wesley, who disallowed the boys to have sugary treats because one of them has ADHD and the other has hyperglycemia, meaning sugar is very dangerous for them. Bobby was misdiagnosed as having ADHD after eating four bowls of sugary cereal for breakfast. |

In the 2005 remake of Yours, Mine, and Ours, when the parents are away at a dinner meeting, the stepsiblings plot to break up their parents' marriage by throwing a Wild Teen Party. While the older kids and teenagers are singing, dancing, eating pizza and junk food, and performing with a band, the younger kids are shuffled up in one of their rooms partying and celebrating by chugging root beer sodas and then indulging in big salad bowls of random junk foods and making a mess (Cheetos, marshmallows, gummy worms, candies, etc). After the parents arrive home and break up the house party, their first concern is where the little ones are. Smash Cut to all the younger children dazed and tired and lying on the floor of their bedroom passed out in a sugar crash, muttering that they're in need of more chocolate. | |

In Hocus Pocus, Max and Dani's mother references this when Dani tries warning her about the Sanderson Sister witch trio who are after them, but since Dani is speaking really fast and acting anxious, it only leads her mother to ask her "How much candy have you had, honey?". Dani replies "Mom, I haven't OD'd! I haven't even had a piece!" in response to the Halloween candy hyperactivity suspicion and begs her mom to listen. Unfortunately the witches arrive and put a hex on the parents through a song. | |

The Great North: In "Blood Actually Adventure", Halloween is the one time Beef allows Moon to eat as much candy as he wants and it really makes him hyper and aggressive. In the past, he would eat so much candy that he would have a sugar crash and they're surprised he managed to stay up until 2:00 P.M. this year. When Judy takes him to his room to rest, they would put a few candies under his pillow because it's dangerous for him to go cold turkey. After Judy gives her statement for her costume, Moon returns from outside the house (having no idea how he got outside in the first place) so he can continue to eat more candy. | |

Reba: When Reba allows her son Jake to spend time with her ex-husband Brock as part of their father-son time, the religious ditzy stepmother Barbara Jean gets the wrong idea of bonding with her stepchild and allows Jake to have a banana split, a Snickers candy bar, and an iced mocha coffee drink after he had dinner with his dad. As a result, Jake comes home hyped up on sugar and caffeine, talking really loud and asking his mother if he can stay up all night and then jumping and hopping energetically all the way to his bedroom — much to Reba's dismay. In a season 2 episode where the plot focuses on Jake's birthday party (and the family drama that ensues), Reba lampshades this and Cheyenne references this as she's a new teen parent trying to keep everyone quiet so that her baby could sleep. Reba simply tells Cheyenne not to worry about the noise as they're just "a bunch of 10-year-olds we're pumping full of cake and candy". |

The Loud House: In "No Spoilers", Lola makes a cake with so many decorations that she runs in a circle after just one bite. Despite this, she still thinks it's not sweet enough since she has a massive Sweet Tooth. Implied in "Party Down", where Lisa is a lot more twitchy and excited than usual while eating chocolate, though perhaps she was just very excited. |

The Fairly OddParents!: In "Just Desserts", Timmy wishes that all the food in the world is dessert so that he doesn't have to eat vegetables. The wish gives everyone a sugar rush since there's nothing healthy in their stomachs to absorb the sweets. Traffic moves at the speed of light, world records get set in all sports, and Chet Ubetcha writes five operas while grouting his bathroom. Chet also manages to do his news show in just five minutes and spends the remaining 55 minutes running a marathon. Meanwhile, an entire day of school is held in just three minutes. Soon, the sugar rush wears off, and 28 days later, everyone becomes morbidly obese. | |

In Alvin and the Chipmunks, when Alvin, Simon, and Theodore become pop star sensations due to their singing skills, their boss and adoptive caretaker Ian Hawk abuses his power over them and drives them to sleep deprivation and exhaustion. When the chipmunk trio is unable to finish a recording because they keep dozing off, Ian decides to give them large coffee drinks filled with whipped cream, caramel, and two pumps of chocolate syrup. As the chipmunks guzzle the large sugary coffee drinks, Ian smugly replies "That oughta keep them awake". Unfortunately, it works too well. As soon as the large drinks are finished, the chipmunks end up bouncing off the walls of their recording booth and singing at a rapid rate before literally crashing by hitting the glass windows of their recording booth. Much to Ian's ire. | |

In Are We There Yet?, Nick's love interest's children Kevin and Lindsay are forbidden to have sugar. When they go to a kid's birthday party at a rec center where one of the clowns is a doctor with a prescription to refill Kevin's inhaler, Kevin and Lindsay spot the tables just filled with various pies, cakes, and brownies and allow themselves to indulge and enjoy the chocolate creamy treats for the first time. While Lindsay turns out fine, Kevin unfortunately goes overboard and becomes hyper from all the sugary treats, resulting in him talking too fast, not being able to stay in his passenger seat for too long, and eventually projectile vomiting all over the inside of Nick's prized vehicle after sipping an orange soda to try to calm his upset stomach. | |

After the sugar crash, he grabs more sugar to experience another rush. Mr. Smarty Smarts catches on to this and consumes a large amount of sugar so he can also have a sugar rush. He tries to kill Peri in the sugar rush, and they chase each other so quickly around the island it creates a massive windstorm. | |

In See Spot Run, after James' mother has to go do something important, her son James is left in the care of his babysitter Gordon who decides to let James indulge in his first taste of Fruit Loops cereal instead of his perfectionist healthy mother's meal choice of raisin bran cereal and soy milk for the kid. Gordon soon regrets letting James have sugar and realizes that he should've obeyed his love interest's (James' mother) orders when James goes hyper, wears a cereal box over his head, whacks stuff in the living room with his toy lightsaber, attempts to grab the pet fish in the water tank with his toy robot hang, jumps from the couch and hits the living room floor flat. Then he shakes his head and keep on going with his sugar-pumped childish rampage. By the morning, when Gordon awakens and walks into the living room to check on James, James is lying on the floor by his videogame toy Dreamcast system, surrounded by a pile of trash and empty discarded bags and boxes of sugary snack cakes, Cheetos and other junk foods, and suffering a terrible sugar crash-like hangover and stomachache. Gordon's solution? Give James "a hair of the dog that bit you" which involves a donut and Pepsi or more sugar. After a bite of a chocolate donut and a drink of some Pepsi, his stomachache and nausea disappear and James tells Gordon "I feel better". | |
