Perhaps that's why it doesn't agree with you.<br /><br />There's a ton of stuff on the web. For starters, anyone interested could go to the Sucralose Toxicity Information Center at http://www.holisticmed.com/splenda/<br />Also Google "DDT Lite Splenda" and see what pops up.<br /><br />Pastor Weedon, I'd much rather see you use Stevia or some other nonpoisonous natural sweetener. Unlike Splenda, Stevia is safe, even for diabetics.<br /><br />Sweet Saavy, at http://www.sweetsavvy.com/ has lots of information on nontoxic alternatives to toxic chemical sweeteners. Some are even low-to-zero carb.<br /><br />I understand that coconut oil is a nice alternative to vegetable shortening (Crisco, et al) another artificial wonder-food which is nothing but transfats.<br /><br />Thanks for your excellent blog, Pr. Weedon. I’ve been a regular lurker for years. :-)CyberSishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12785005260630246224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-59112952861865247352010-11-20T19:21:10.652-06:002010-11-20T19:21:10.652-06:00Splenda isn't "some chemical junk?

I think the cookies amounted to 4 carbs a piece or some such. Not too terrible.

Coconut oil is also great for stir-frying.Jim Huffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16666507238123326223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-81150222660826866022010-11-19T19:41:21.528-06:002010-11-19T19:41:21.528-06:00They use coconut oil at the movies to pop the popc...They use coconut oil at the movies to pop the popcorn. My cousin also makes soap with coconut oil. I'm going to have to get that recipe from Cindi. Sounds great!<br /><br />P.S. In comparison, I snarfed a carb loaded piece of pumpkin pie with whipped cream on top today.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11876814266362066416noreply@blogger.com
