the thing is, i don't find it hard to steer away from sugar in my usual diet: no processed food, mostly organic, vegetarian. & then i go, drawn by an unsuppressable urge, & buy myself half a kilo (over a pound) of sheer sweets & gobble them up in one go. & sometimes i don't do this for up to a year - only to end up restarting the binge cycle.
@walklightly Seems to me, the more sugar one eats, the more one has to have. Sugar, the heroin of food.
I have no Clue but... My sister gave me this and I have to hide them from myself. I think is the Sea Salt... I am a sailor for life after all.

as good (& evil) as anything sweet to me.
I cut sugary sweets out of my diet.
