soaps on telly and people talking about the characters as if they were real.
I use the Truvia grains in some cooking, but I mix in some Xylitol. I prefer both the taste and texture of Xylitol, but it's pricey and you need tto watch for diarrhoea as with all polyols.
For most recipes, you can reduce the quantity of sugar or its equivalent.
