Question:
Has anyone ever used Agave Nectar instead of Sugar?

I have several answers for you: Yes, but I didn't like it that much; I prefer honey. I stopped using honey for about 6 months after my gastric bypass, but now I use it in small amounts in my morning tea. I just read that agave nectar is nutritionally not that much different from high fructose corn syrup, so there doesn't seem to be any benefit in using it.

Yes, I've used it, but in exceedingly small amounts. Like the first responder, I've learned it is very similar to HFCS in it's actions, so there's not that much of an advantage to it.
