Sugar and salt?!?!?!? Evaporated cane juice is an euphemism for sugar and applesauce has it too. This isn't healthy!

I put my comment because of post's title: «The Perfect Allergy-Friendly Cake and Raspberry Compote Recipe» The word «perfect» is the problem. You surely know that anyone reading that it will assume there's nothing wrong with it, hence it's «healthy». Which is not! The reply confirmed it! «No one said GF is healthy.» Shouldn't be? Shouldn't we promote GF healthy eating?! «Everything is in moderation.» Unhealthy in moderation? I do find the above arguments curious...

The title of the recipe is more referring to the taste and texture. Everyone has to make their own determination if something is "healthy" by their own definition. We don't make that judgement call here. If someone feels that processed sugar, no matter what the form, is unhealthy, then they should look for a different recipe. If they feel it is fine in moderation, then this recipe might work for them.

Hi Pedro, Thank you for your input. We are actively asking for our constituents' opinions about our recipe database and how we can improve what we offer for families with food allergies.
