Why would we be interested in these things? They have so many carbs, we
might as well eat the real thing!

reminds me of all the sugar free recipes my mom would make from the diabtes
mags in the 80's..she'd always end up dosing herself wrong cause these
things had no sugar and ending up very sick.

She actually argued with a doctor who kindly explained to her that all the
"oses" as in succrose and fructose and lactose and the like are STILL
sugars.
She also swore using honey or mayple syrup was ok too.

Sigh..
