What is tahini?
Think of tahini as a hidden treasure inside tiny sesame seeds. It’s a smooth paste made from carefully ground sesame seeds, sometimes with a pinch of salt for balance. Its texture is similar to peanut butter, but it has its own personality: velvety, dense, and with a subtle nutty flavor.
How does the body react to sugar consumption?
When you eat products with added sugar, your body quickly absorbs glucose, and the spike in blood sugar triggers the pancreas to release insulin. This mechanism keeps blood sugar under control. If you often choose sweet foods, your body starts storing the excess as fat, contributing to weight gain. Over time, your body may stop responding effectively to insulin, increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
Got sent three pots of Mr Tom's peanut cream and some chocolate coated cashews instead of the advent calendar. Having ordered from abroad and paid more for the postage than the item, and having no chance of getting the calendar again in time, didn't even attempt to get it sorted. Very dissappointing.
