Jessie Vermeulen sê: Ek het vandag die Banting Seed Rusks gemaak wat op die files is. Baie lekker maar ooo weee…. baie vetterig. Daar kom in 250 g botter en 1 koppie room. Dit sal ook nooit heel kan uitdroog soos gewone beskuit nie. Het lekker ge-eksperimenteer met al die sade. Is growwe vetterige beskuit! Alles goeie vette volgens bekende Dr Noakes. Maar die sade het ook baie olie’s, so mens moet maar aanpas.
