Snposman Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Terrible news - last night after eating a delicious meal of teriyaki meatballs and broccoli on day 8, my husband broke into hives. It seems likely that the medjool dates used as a sweetener in the recipe are the culprit. I’m heartbroken as I was already dreaming of a world after whole 30 where we stayed off sugar indefinitely. Has anyone found alternatives that wound change a recipes taste too much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotwheels Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Yikes! I have seen recipes that used figs or dates. You could try fruit juice for some recipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slc_melissa Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Is there a reason you wouldn't use something like honey in your post whole-30 food freedom, if you re-intro'd it and didn't have problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berry straw Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Raisins can work similarly to dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snposman Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Raisins, I did not think of that. Will have to try, thank you! @slc_melissa I probably will but I liked the idea of dates better than using a sweetener like honey, although they both have nutritional benefits (if I’m using raw, local honey of course).
