I guess I knew this, but it's more powerful in writing. I fell victim to sugary yogurt this morning (albeit Siggi's, which has less sugar than most).

  • annefood You're welcome @Sim ! Making your own sauce is the definitely the best way to ensure good ingredients. Plus it's easy to freeze and have on hand. But when you are short of time and don't have any...
