@Carmie    Thank you for the reply - I will have to give this 'sugar' a try.  Less sweet is OK with me.

I never heard of it before but I use monkfruit as a sugar substitute.

@We rescue cats I don't have any sugar issues, but I'm sensitive to the taste of sugar alcohols which are often used in place of sugar.  Atkins seems to use them a lot in their bars.

Interested in this product. I would be interested in the granulated only. Don't use much sugar but would really like to remove all that I can. While watching the rerun this morning, host asked the vendor to explain it to us and when he was right in the middle of his explanation she interrupted and started eating a strawberry with cream cheese and the sugar, completely ruining his explanation! I'll be checking online about this product.

My DH bought a container of yogurt with this ingredient in it, and tossed, said he didnt care for the taste at all.

I am not diabetic but am wondering if this product is safe for diabetics?  Occasionally I have to make a dessert and 2 of the ladies are diabetic.  Thanks

@Carolina925 

 

I purchased.  Really only wanted the granulated but it came in a set w/ the syrups.

 

Just used it yesty to make homemade Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream.

 

Used it in both the strawberries and ice cream base.

 

You would NOT know!  I am so happy w/ this product as other 'subs' have such an odd taste to me.

 

I will be purchasing again.
