     I had a DEFINITE sweet tooth when I was young. I couldn't wait to grow up so I could eat as much as I wanted of whatever I wanted. Ironic then that I MUCH prefer salty crunchy to sugary. Vinegary I like in salad dressings/condiments like pickles and peppers etcetera. But in conversation? That's where I like sweet not vinegary or soury or bitter! Thank you for your reply Ele!  :)

    I am neither. In the end, it's still medicine.

    In foods I enjoy salty crunchy snacks. In people I prefer sweet. I don't bother with sour or bitter or biting or firey. I frolic about with those with whom I enjoy spending time. I eat the foods I enjoy consuming. I mean if you can't do what you want when you want with whom you want what's the point? Thank you for your reply cp! When I was a kid I had such a sweet tooth my mom had to lock up a cabinet where she kept the sweets. Now as an adult when I can eat all the sweets I want? You guessed it! A little dab'll do me. A taste and I'm off to find something salty crunchy! Go figger! :)

    Good old apple cider vinegar is supposed to have the most health benefits Spunky. There is even a vinegar diet! Thank you for your reply! :)

    Too funny Shar! I hadn't read your post when I replied to Spunky. It's about BALSAMIC VINEGAR! Thank you for your reply! Yours is the best! From Modena, Italy! :)

    Both Jim and I are too pearl so we have cut way back on eating sugary things. Thank you for your reply!

    Both you and Jim are too pearl?  Since when did the word "pearl" become an adjective, and what the heck does it mean?
