Agave Nectar is a honey like substance extracted from the fruit itself.  It's low in glycemic index, which is important for people with diabetes (I had gestational diabetes and am now very aware of what raises blood sugar) and can also help with weight control.  It's 25% sweeter than sugar and is already a liquid, so unlike sugar, it does not need to dissolve.  I have found it at both Wild Oats and Whole Foods next to the honey.  Try it!
