by Leave a Comment

Bingo 9: N is for Not (‘N’ Square) Not Too Sweet is a little bit of a misnomer. Just because the dessert recipes avoid sometimes white sugar does not mean they are low sugar or low sweet. Maple syrup seems to be the general swap, and that’s not exactly low sugar or unprocessed. Dates might be more natural, but those are really sweet. White sugar is still present in some things too. The options for “[something]-free” (gluten, grain mostly) and vegan optional don’t really seem […]
