I don't see any problem with dessert recipes, they are just as good as any recipe. My own definition of junk food is any food that claims to be low-something - low-fat, low-cholesterol, etc., which means low-taste, and therefore worth throwing into junk. As far as diabetes, although it is a disease that results in high blood sugar, it is not caused by consuming sugar. This group shares all types of recipes, no one can say members of the group live by dessert alone. But slippery slope of regulating which kind of recipes is more welcome is dangerous.

Maybe even once a week? I hope this is not too much out of line. But it's making me have sugar and general junk food cravings just to look at all these desserts, and blind person does not live by dessert alone, much as they might want to. Although I do not have diabetes, blind people are much over-represented in the diabetic population. So I'm not asking to stop with these wonderful desserts, just to calm it down perhaps a little!
