    Recipes are even worse. “Low sugar” recipe, it uses a shitload of honey or maple syrup instead.

      It is really incredible how once you start reducing your sugar intake so much of the super-sugary overly-sweet everything everywhere just stops mattering because you just can’t stand to eat more than a bite or two of it

        I used to like pickled beetroot but now what they have in shops is far too sweet. Normally find pouring the liquid out and replacing it with vinegar makes them taste like they should.

        Hopefully growing my own to try pickling, time will tell how well they grow. Already pickled quite a few radishes. Not sure if I will keep growing them though, moving to more perennial crops and tubers/bulbs.

      its marketing and obfuscation of the ingredients. if you look at the nutritional facts, you can tell its not the case, anything honey/fruity next to this product like bread or yogurt, you can guaranteed is sugar, although not added sugar.
