SUGAR IN MY TEA?

As far as sweeteners are concerned xylitol is pretty good, no nasty aftertaste and the sweetness level is the same as sugar so one tsp xylitol is the same as 1tsp sugar.

Biscuits have quite a lot of sugar in them too, mrs Bear makes then to take to work and I was surprised to see how much sugar is in the recipe. i suspect you could make them with xylitol instead of sugar though, may have to ask her to try, haven't had a biscuit in ages.

Ginger nuts, about 2 carbs (and 30 cals) less than a digestive. A tasty option Q. "Suck it and see" ;)

Hold on the digestives then, bring on the ginger nuts! They're more 'manly' if I'm allowed to say that. When you dunk digestives, they fall in the cup and then float, with ginger nuts they can take several dunks, they just speak to you; "dunk me" ! " go on, dunk me" - " again, dunk me, again, go on again dunk me" they're so butch. When this storm blows the branches off my car that the last storm put there I'm going out to buy some ginger nuts.. Yaye ....

(sad life) exited over a bloody biscuit.

Q.. Out.
