Glucose in TSA?[edit]

Where is the glucose? The text mentions glucose to be the energy source, but the list of igredients does not list glucose or something that may yield gludose after digestion.

It a common misconception, even amongst very knowledgeable scientists that TSB and TSA are identical except for agar content. This however is not true, and it's proof that nobody reads labels. TSA has no glucose, while TSB does. Both articles exist so I will sort this out now.James.folsom (talk) 20:08, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
