I have high cholesterol... no, I HAD high cholesterol, but by eschewing saturated fat I've brought it down - but now a) I can't add it back in b) I don't want to as things with sat fat in taste and even smell really unpleasant to me. <br /><br />So I'm always searching for fat free or sat fat free versions of cakes, biscuits etc and vegan might be the way to go...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2203825390310863045.post-24636491619183378532010-11-22T20:21:38.414+00:002010-11-22T20:21:38.414+00:00I do love to read about what you have made.
