It depends on what you mean by \"healthier\". If you mean lower calorie, then stevia is healthier as it's non-carb and no-calorie. If you mean which confers some kind of health benefits, it depends on which health benefits you mean.
Am not sure if brown sugar or stevia will be healthier, just referencing as options.
Can use coconut water for coffee if need as well.

Using a small amount of sugar shouldn't be unhealthy? Unless you have a reason to avoid sugar as far as possible.
I thought brown sugar is not very \"healthy\"? Coconut water sounds fine. Thanks for the tip

For a diabetics, putting any types of sugar into drinks is not advisable.

Huh?? No way!!! :? Avocado tastes so rich and creamy like milk compared to refreshing cucumbers taste, (the japanese ones which happened to be another fave snack I take frequently too together with radish and seaweed...so amazing!)...especially the Australian ones. Have you been to an Australian supermarket before? :boogie: I would buy all the avocados there if I could carry them home!
That's like saying you like cucumbers
Tastes like water... or simply... bland. I still remember trying out an avocado freshly pressed juice for the first time. I had to look at the glass again to see if they actually put avocado in there. They were simply delectable....and rightfully so since they grew them..
The avocados I get from NTUC are very inconsistent breeds...there were days I needed to wait so long before they were edible.. -

Really arh? Hmm... then must try the ones from Japanese then. I guess the experience is like with peaches. I never liked peaches in Singapore. Then my friend came back from a peach picking excursion in San Jose and I took some samples. OMG. It was day and night. It was incredible. I fell in love with THOSE peaches. They were totally different from those I ate in Singapore. Maybe they picked the peaches weeks before they ripen before exporting to Singapore.

Yes, yes. There is also a difference between air-flown or via ship. Pre-Covid, I used to buy apricots, cherries and some fresh produce from pop-up stalls that self-import. Unfortunately, no longer seeing them anymore.

We always visit farms to bring back food - honey, custard apples, avocado, mango, cherries, cheese, ... -

Japanese cucumbers are less bitter if it is ever bitter. And obviously I love sushi and that includes sushi maki.

Oh San Jose for peaches? Think so far the fresh peaches bought in Singapore has not much luck yet for me to say they tasted great. The Japanese ones in the supermarket look really good but the price is no good so yet to try....maybe one fine day....
Another fruit I have not eaten for ages is durian and I saw a box of 4-pieces-only Black Gold durian costing $40 in CS yesterday! :yikes: This is probably the highest-fever type of price I have seen for durians.

$40 for 4 pieces of durian?? Vendors are just cutting their own throats and those who buy them are just people with too much money to flaunt. Why not just donate their $$$ to people who really need it? I think there's more lasting satisfaction in there than some momentary kick from \"black gold\".
