I am working on a post about incorporating raw sugar into your diet. Are there any real specific questions you all have for me. I'd love to give it my best shot at answering them.
Let me know....

Oh, yes. I've read Nourishing Traditions, but I don't find the suggested Rapadura (name brand) for sale anywhere. It says it's dehydrated cane juice, though, so at the health food store, I bought a little bag of dehydrated cane juice. I loved the flavor of it, but not the price, so when I ran out, I went back to regular white sugar, but I've got a fifty pound bag of dehydrated cane juce coming in to the local buying club this week. My research suggests that there might be a difference between dehydrated cane juice and Rapadura, but I haven't been able to find out anything consistent. Is there a difference, besides the one being generic?
oh lord nothing specific i just need some guidance. like i said in my last comment, I feel great incorporating whole wheat into my baking and cooking but im starting to notice the amount of sugar! wow. I'm slightly nervous about subsituting too many things out in one recipe (ie adding apple sauce or something like that) because I already sub out eggs. And quite frankly using sugar substitute just seems like its not an option, some of those things are just a weird mix of chemicals and I'm very nervous to introduce a lot of that stuff to my little one with food allergies.
guidance... i just need guidance... and lots of it! thanks for thinking about my question, your my health food guru!
I use raw sugar for all of my baking and cooking but, I'm interested to know what to look for when buying products. For example, if something says "natural sugar" does that mean raw? It seems like alot of companies try to use codes for white sugar to deceive us..it would be nice to have a decoder. :)
I as well have substituted organic cane sugar, turbinado sugar, molases and honey into my everyday cooking/baking. I just have one question: If I use a smaller granule organic cane sugar (which tastes noticibly sweeter than turbinado sugar) does that suggest a more refined sugar which may not be as healthy?
