I was just watching the food networks show "low carb and loving it" and the
guy made a dessert that called for a brown sugar substitute. I have yet to
see anything like this in the stores and was wondering if anyone has seen
this, used it, and where they have been able to find it.

that carries sugar twin isn't easy.

sorry i didn't know..................all my local stores carry it.
someone in here talked about mixing some splenda with a drop or two
of molasses to make your own brown sugar.

I've used the sugar twin brown sugar substitute and it's kind of nasty
tasting.

i prefer to use my DEVIANCY (sweetened with splenda) sugar free
pancake syrup in place of brown sugar.
(i do have some brown sugar twin though)

Maybe it's just me, but I see nothing wrong with having a little sugar once
in a while. If it's a *treat* like it should be and not a daily thing, I
think it's better for one than some chemical additive.

Too bad you don't live around here - it's in all the stores.
Have you tried the health food stores or a specialty store such as Trader
Joe's?

No trader joes around here. And short of driving up to the next town up,
the health food stores in town are not open on Sunday's (today), and close
by 6pm on weekdays (before I get home from work) so that leaves Saturdays,
which my Saturdays are usually spent runnign all those errands to catch all
those other places like that.
That's the problem living in retirement capital, they cater to all the
retired folks and forget about the working people. :{

I'm not sure, but I can't stand that host after he called Chicken Teriyaki
*Chinese food*. Sheesh, you'd think he, as a cooking host, would know the
difference between Chinese and Japanese.....where do they get these people?
