Too concentrated -- they grind and dry and regrind the dates. I remember a big discussion on date sugar when Elaine was alive, and she said, as I recall, no. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I figure it's like the sap from maple trees - maybe if maple trees had fruit or nuts, those would be legal, but the sap boiled into syrup isn't. Yeah, I know the old adage, " when in doubt, leave it out, " but figured I'd ask anyway. I'll let you guys know if I find out anything that appears to be good factual information that will tell us one way or another. Exactly. And while I hate playing the ogre on some of this stuff, I would far rather err on the side of caution than risk anyone getting sick because something which sounds too good to be true... really IS too good to be true. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
