I'd love it too! I like to eat all over in Grand Rapids, I've got a list of new places to try and I have old favorites too. There's a relatively new Mexican place downtown called maggie's Kitchen, they even have barbacoa made of beef cheeks, there's a Caribbean place with some kind of goat dish that's only got curbside service, a fish place on Kalamazoo down by the Mediterranean Market, and there are old standbys like Pietro's. I love the Blue Water Grill but that's clear over off Plainfield on East Beltline, and there are a lot of places I haven't even tried downtown near VanAndel and The B.O.B. Any preferences? Sushi? Indian? Fish? Diner? Even chain restaurants if you have a favorite, heck, we've even got a Sonic now, right across the street from Gordon Food Service on Alpine, LOL. You tell me when and we'll find a where! I'm definitely going to have to check D&W for Koeze's, though, and the one on 44th has DeRueze's Gourmet Market right next door. They now have a cut rate gourmet department where they get pallets full of stuff for really cheap, it's fun but you never know what you'll find for a buck... Annie

OK, my not so scientific test is complete...finally! I made the four sweetener variations -- Splenda, agave, sugar and honey. I tested for both taste and blood sugars. Taste results from best to least tasty (your taste might be different): Sugar, agave, honey, Splenda Blood sugar results from lowest to highest: Splenda, agave, honey, sugar Unfortunately, the one that had no effect on my blood sugars also was the least tasty...Splenda. Although they tasted very good, the honey and sugar cookies upped my blood sugars more than I'd like. The agave cookies, as its low GI value would indicate, raised my blood sugars but not as much or as quickly as honey and sugar, but over a longer period of time. And the taste was quite close to ones made with sugar. This is a keeper. Thanks everyone for your help! Marsha

My eyes are closed as I just came from doctor's appointment and have gained weight, PLUS I have a spoon in a jar of Peter Pan Peanut butter right in front of me on my pc desk :o)

I will have to try this. I haven't been able to eat peanut products for years but finally found a peanut butter substitute that looks and tastes like the peanut butter I remember and the best part you can use it in recipes just as you would use peanut butter. It is called Wowbutter and is made with roasted soy and has the same texture as peanut butter too. Over the years I have tried different nut butters but this one is the best WOWBUTTER
