It's a tough little game. :) <b>Tara:</b> I managed to find a case of six squeeze bottles (24 oz) of the light and three (18 oz) of the dark at Amazon, so that's what I ended up getting. Yeah, it's a lot, but I'm planning on starting in on some serious substitution experiments. :) I've only used the light so far; I'm hoping to use the dark in recipes that call for dark corn syrup and maybe brown sugar. <b>gautami:</b> thanks! <b>Stefanie:</b> I believe so. You're supposed to use 25% less when using it in place of sugar because it's sweeter, but I seem to recall honey's sweeter too. I'd guess somewhere between 1:1 and 3:4. bookbabie: Thanks.

I think Trader Joes may have a slightly better price on it than WF so I'll check that out. I don't think I need a gallon of it at a time though! Do you use the light or dark - I've never tried the dark and am curious. I *love* agave nectar and I heard about it from the same source.
