Stefan, sometimes...

U&I- Utah and Idaho. They grow sugar beets there, and guess what U&I sugar
comes from!

C&H- California and Hawaii. They grow sugar cane there ;-) You could buy it
at the Star Market, next to the celery. Chew and chew and chew... until all
the sugar is out and you're chewing on straw...

Somebody's tutu (don't remember who anymore) used to make a sort of
homebrew, with sugar cane all beat up and soaked until it started to
ferment. It smelled ugly and had a powerful punch. I always wondered if
that's why she only had three teeth...

flavor in shipping
