I agree -- one thing that is difficult about so much of this stuff is that there is always an equally valid opposite it seems.
Although I do believe and I am sticking to my guns here that Sugar is better than corn syrup. The net effect on the body may be the same, but I'll take a Mexican real-sugar coke over US corn coke any day of the week.
I am realizing that the crystals probably won't easily digest in oil, though. I may just try the spray...? And I wonder if the spray is like alcohol. The last thing I need is to trigger my alcohol cravings....
