I  Pomegranate Having I.B.S and an anxiety disorder, I avoid eating food with E number  as much as possible.  Or to be more specific any foods that have additives.  The more I avoid, the happier my digestive system is.   From an anxiety point of view, one of the side effects is that I can get really really really hyper.  Think of a stone rolling down a hill gathering speed, and that's without any extra stimulants.  I stick to herbal tea and pretty much stay far away from too much sugar or caffeine.  I hate to think what extra food additives do to me.....

So instead of a lovely chocolate glaze to compliment my lovely orange cakes, I was left with a syrup.  Which I had no idea what to do with.  As a syrup it's great, I just don't really need any chocolate syrup at the moment.
