General Questions / Sweeteners and substitutions
« on: July 10, 2011, 12:31:12 AM »
Hi all,
I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a person like me who just cannot seem to come around to artificial sweeteners. I am opposed to the taste and feeling produced by the artificial sweeteners I have tried. I'm worried about long term changes because I know I will eventually want to venture into making and having desserts and sweet drinks again (I've almost exclusively done away with all sweets except for the occasional sf jello to take my vitamins lol yes, I'm like a child). I LOVE raw honey to sweeten tea and fresh fruits juiced in my home juicer, but have had none thus far. I don't know how to substitute these things. Has anyone dealt with this? Any suggestions?
