All the sugar in tomato sauce is why I never eat those dishes in italian restaurants anymore. If I want Chef Boy-ar-dee, I can have it for 99¢ a can at home. Piero Trimarchi forever ruined me for lesser forms of lasagna, then decided to only cook it one or two days a year.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
an old boss told me that she and her husband would celebrate their anniversary by buying two lobsters, bringing them home and racing them across the kitchen floor, then the winner is the first one cooked (with the loser quickly following him).
That's a pretty liberal interpretation of the word "win" they've got there.
I am kind of impressed that the woman admitted the crystal meth thing in her book. I mean, it appeared to work for her. And I think it's hilarious.
sarameg, how did you find the baked goods in CZR? They were such teases to me because they were gorgeous and cheap but tasteless without American oversugaring.
I hope in class tonight that everyone else's employment law cases are as fascinating as mine is. I had to find something about discrimination, and people are fascinating, I tell you what.
Our Labor and Employment dept seems to have the best cases. I guess because if they aren't settled immediately it's because the employee is nuts. (Actually, they represent your school against the professors.)

The goal is be eaten first, much like Cthulhu cultists.
But I can't make everything from scratch just to avoid that. Someone out there must be catering to people who aren't interested in alternate sweeteners -- who just prefer less sweetness.
let me know if you find them
The Persian restaurant I tried a week or so ago would be a good place to start. Sugar never even looked at any of those dishes.
I used to drink club soda with a few healthy shakes of bitters instead of gingerale or cola. Really tasty, and not at all sweet.

Well, they were less sweet, but honestly? Largely tasteless. It wasn't just the sugar missing.
Me, I loves me the sugar. I have some deelish Orange Milanos in my desk drawer right now AIFG. That being said, the commercial pastries in NYC delis were way too sugary for me.
What do I want to have for lunch?
