Did you know that most vanilla extracts on the market have sugar in them! I didn't until I started going processed free and now read EVERY label of the food I buy. Why wasn't I reading more labels before? It just goes to show you that on the whole we have no idea what we are putting in our bodies until we increase our awareness. Because of this, I now look for pure vanilla extract that has NO sugar added. I also try to get organic whenever possible too. This is a brand that I like and can buy locally, but there are other brands out there with no sugar added as well. In addition to cutting out sugar, I think pure vanilla makes your recipes taste better anyway. It's a win-win. Next time you run out of vanilla and need to buy more, purchase a better quality product and cut out the hidden sugar!
