Default Ping: Barb apple butter

That sounds like a great recipe, Barb, except for the sugar, which may
give you diabetes (which I would replace with splenda, or the new
equivalent walmart product "Altern" which is 1/2 the price of Splenda
{I guess Tate & Lyle is going to be eating Walmart's shorts on this
one}, and the salt, which may give you HBP (which I would replace with
potassium chloride salt).

One thing I would personally try would be to chop the skins up in a
blender, as they have tremendous nutritive value (a lot of the good
stuff in fruit is in the skin).
Sincerely, BlackHawk
