Most sugar isn't vegan and most vegans won't eat most sugar. But they now
have palm sugar aka coconut sugar. It is vegan and it seems to be replacing
brown rice syrup as the vegan choice of sweetener. Dates are also a popular
sweetener. I have made raw vegan brownies that were little more than dates,
nuts and cocoa powder put in a food processor. You'd be hard pressed to
tell them from baked brownies. Seriously!
