Erythritol, a sugar alcohol (or polyol), is considered the world's first all-natural, non-caloric sweetener. It is naturally found in a wide variety of foods including mushrooms, watermelon, pears and grapes as well as fermented foods like sake, wine and soy sauce. With a carb count of nearly zero, it surprisingly tastes much like sugar, but has a glycemic index of zero!
Healing Gourmet recommends ZSweet - find it in your local health foods store and use just as you would sugar.
