One of my friends was raving about this Monk Fruit sweetener that you could
swap cup for cup for sugar. No calories or carbs. Sounded fishy. Every brand
I saw had Erythritol sweetener in it. Horrible stuff. Leaves a weird cooling
sensation in the mouth. Might be okay for something mint flavored or
something served cold but it's sure not the healthy stuff it's touted to be!
