Johnnyzen,
Rapadura (organic unrefined cane sugar) is fine to use for baking, as long as it is treated with care like maple syrup which appears to be more yin than brown rice syrup.
Rapadura (
http://www.rapunzel.com/products/rap..._rapadura.html ) is not the same as brown sugar (
http://www.sugar.org/facts/types.html ) which is refined cane sugar colored with molasses, or turbinado sugar which is partially refined cane sugar.
Likewise, Sucanat (
http://www.wholesomesweeteners.com/manufact/sucanat.htm ) and Sugar In The Raw (
http://www.sugarintheraw.com/ ) are both big jokes, bicause they too are forms of colored, refined cane sugar.
Do you know why eating refined foods like refined cane sugar, can contribute to poor health?
Is Johnnyzen your birth name or Cybermacro alias?
Thank you, very much.
Bruce Paine
