SUGAR SHOCK! has been featured in a number of newspapers around the country, thanks to Joan Obra of the Fresno Bee, a McClatchy Newspaper.
As I noted in this post on this SUGAR SHOCK! Blog, on January 15, Joan wrote an article about alternative sweeteners, entitled "The sweet life: Sugar substitutes are more plentiful than ever, but don’t overdo them."
Joan quoted me several times in her story, which also included this photo and caption below.
Then, as Google has been alerting me, after Joan’s article ran, it was picked up by a number of other McClatchy Newspapers, including the following:
Connecticut Post, "The sweet life: Sugar substitutes plentiful, but don’t overdo them," Feb. 4, 2008

As you’ll read, I’m not a fan of alternate sweeteners for a number of reasons.
Thanks, Joan, for your informative article, which aims to present all sides of the subject.
