Sad...I hear xylitol warnings for pets with every recipe, and honestly haven't used it in cooking because of that. They say if you were to drop something made with it on the kitchen floor, even some batter it could kill a pet.

@cherokeepatti @cherokeepatti indeed, very bad for pets

@mrmoose I think I'll use my bag of xylitol for homemade mouthwash, add some mint flavor and not bake with it.

@cherokeepatti probably safer
