White sugar is hidden in unsuspecting locations:
- Mustards
- Vinaigrettes
- Peanut butter
- Crackers
- Evaporated cane juice
Our bodies naturally crave what we eat which increases our sugar cravings, especially when eating hidden sugars
Sugar substitutes
-Just because we avoid white sugar doesn't mean we have to forgo sweetness
Sugar Alternatives:

- Brown rice syrup
- Barley malt
- Unrefined/unbleached cane sugar
