True. I've never watched a Steven Spielberg movie.

Stevia is my favorite sweetener. All of the others I taste terrible in my opinion. But, remember that stevia won't be a dead ringer for sugar, but it is tasty.

My advice is to learn everything you can. Vegan for Life is a great starter point. Also, avoid low fat/no fat vegan. It's VERY hard…

Butter, just weigh it an log it.
