BEST SWEETENER - NOT JUST FOR PEOPLE WITH DIABETES! SPREAD THE WORD!!!
PROS:
*This the best sweetener for anyone wishing to lower sugar intake, not just those with diabetes.
*Tastes great. However, we don't agree it's a 1:1 ratio of Lakanto MFS to sugar. The ratio is more like 2:1, so you would need 2 teaspoons of Lakanto MFS for every 1 teaspoon of regular cane sugar. This opinion does not, in any way, reduce the value of this product. It really does not impact blood sugar...PRICELESS!
CONS: Cost is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE. We feel blessed to be able to afford this, but not everyone can afford a sweetener that costs 8-10 times as much as common cane sugar. The process to refine monkfruit sugar is no longer under patent, which it was for 20 years. Please spread the word about this great sweetener to drive up demand. Hopefully, that will encourage our capitalist society to bring more competitors in and bring down prices.
