It took me like 40 mins to an hour to make mine but then we also don’t have a big griddle so I was only cooking a couple at a time in a regular pan haha

I'm gonna have to research food with natural sugars and sodium I guess! Just for you Valerie.

All vegetables have naturally occurring salt and so don't herbs. If you add certain herbs to your food it will give it a salty taste.

If you want sugar eat fruits...

I'm actually throwing out a bunch of candy canes right now that I bought for snacking on but I don't want to eat them anymore. I'm going to try to cut sugar out completely and I'm only going to use coconut sugar or brown sugar when I need to add sugar to something like my oatmeal or what not.

sorghum, black strap molasses, golden syrup, real maple syrup are all good too!

Agave is good too and coconut sugar

agave is high in Fructose so is not as good as some.

BF uses a Stevia in his coffee .. When I cook rarely add salt .. I put just enough sugar to activate the yeast baking

agave is high in HFCs so is not as good as some.

I don't know what HFC means... Can you write out what it means

Agave is low in glucose and doesn't spike your blood sugar like some other sugar alternatives do.

Surprising, not even a little bit! There's some leftovers, but it's mostly brown. This has been the norm for the last few years. It'll get with it in February and March

I'm doing pretty good. Struggling with some pains a bit and trying to adjust my attitude haha. Can't let that get ya down, right?

How are you? Good weather still?

Hi Meg. Good to see you.

High fructose like high fructose corn syrup. It does most of the same stuff. I have seen it be pulled off of the healthy lists over the past several years


Most agave syrup has a higher fructose content than any commercial sweetener -- ranging from 55 to 97 percent, depending on the brand, which is FAR HIGHER than high fructose corn syrup (HFCS), which averages 55 percent. This makes agave actually WORSE than HFCS.Jun 15, 2010
