The horrors of faking it

Anyone who has taken to keto eating may get a hankering for a carb-filled stack of pancakes and some maple syrup.
   There are all kinds of recipes for keto pancakes and keto maple syrup you make at home with weird ingredients such as xantham gum.
   Let me tell you right now, get over your craving and stick to your veggies, berries, and proteins.  Keto pancakes, compared to whole wheat pancakes or spelt pancakes, are ghastly and should be shot on sight.  And the homemade maple syrup is a profound insult to maple and syrup.  Go not there.
   Eventually the desire for carbs will reduce drastically because you begin to feel better without them.  Stick to the real thing, no matter what it is, and if you really want pancakes, try some incredible cottage cheese pancakes--light, fluffy, and minimal flour.  But don't insult them with some demonic substitute for maple syrup.
