Hi, Plums were 50 cents a pound at walmart so we got five or six
pounds. now, here's my questions. LOL

I've been told I have diabetes, borderline. I use fruit when I want
something sweet and it seems to work out just fine.

I prefer to eat fresh fruit but I'd like to preserve these so I'll
have some fruit when all the fruit at the market is unaffordable. So
does preserves or jam use less sugar? I don't need it to be extra
sweet, In fact I'd prefer to have more fruit flavor and not so much
sweetener, but canning them in plain water is going to just give me
watery fruit, so What would you do?

thanks, kitty
