I’m fascinated to learn how sugar is processed and good to know raw sugar is not a bad guy. I have a sweet tooth and every once in a while I don’t want to feel guilty satisfying it. Every once in a while though is at least once a day.😂🍭

I love your post - at least you're honest ... LOL. Pure, raw sugar is actually good for you, in moderation, of course. So enjoy Belgium or German chocolates. I don't have a sweet tooth, thank goodness, but I'll go for a good chocolate any day. Read all your labels on your "every once in a while sweet" and go for quality and natural ingredients - you'll feel even LESS guilty!

Awesome. It sounds like you are very healthy and are making good choices. And, yes, pure cane sugar in the Mexican cokes is a better choice when you're just craving a cold cola. I'm glad that I don't have a sweet tooth either. It spares us a lot of health issues, for sure!
