Disclaimer: The reviewer has received Swerve in the past for free. I was compensated to participate in #Switch2Swerve challenge through the Bookieboo Influencer Network . I did switch out my regular sweetener for the Swerve Sweetener from November 18, 2013 through December 20, 2013. This post does include the Swerve Brown Sugar, but was not part of the original #Switch2Swerve challenge and does not include any free products. All opinions are my own and are my honest opinions based on my own experience with the product.
