for those asking where to get it it, I recommend the internet... it takes a little longer but you'll save money and you have more options. i'm using nature's way "efagold" extra virgin organic stuff... it's dreamy. :) it has a very coconutty flavor though so i've been having trouble getting creative ways to use it... but…

If anyone does choose to use xylitol, be super careful if you have pets -- even one piece of gum can be toxic. I work at a vet and we have had a few sad, sad cases of xylitol poisoning... mostly fatal. :brokenheart: A lot of people don't know, so just FYI!

Yes, you can... lol. My mom actually got some pretty crazy kidney problems from eating a lot of artificial sweeteners and ended up having surgery. I have since been paranoid about not overdoing it on the artificial sweeteners although I do enjoy a diet soda here and there... in my coffee I just do a little hazelnut creamer…

I wasn't even worried about this before, but I sure am now... lol

I just guess on the amounts of the ingredients too, when possible... just be super careful about sneaky things like mayo or if something was cooked in oil or whatever. Ninja calories. :) I somehow used to have the idea that condiments didn't really count... and boy do they...!

lolll... well, that's good news. ;) i wasn't thinking of it for sexual reasons but i guess that could be an added bonus... :love:
