People try to maline sugar, as if it's some dietary evil, but I think a small amount won't do any harm. I too prefer unsweetened yogurts, it's delicious with just the natural sweetness of fresh berries of something---I think I may just have some now!! :-) Yes, I agree.

But there is nothing good in artificial sweeteners. They are not a natural substance, so I wonder in what way they may be, secretly, affecting the kidneys or the liver or some other internal organ. I avoid them. I'd rather feed myself and my children things sweetened with sugar, or buy unsweetened foods like yogurts and eat them with fruit and a sprinkle of sugar or drizzle of honey. I don't even like artificially sweetened yogurts any more. They taste too sweet and aren't satisfying. Melanie,
