    Ok, I've been reading a lot about this idea of using "special Kitty" a 100% clay based product no additives as a sub in your fudge. Any one using, used it, have experience they can shed on it.

    it works the same aas miracle mud, IMO, however, the benefits don't seem to outweigh the risks. It buffers the water and adds trace minerals, but can get dirty and cause a crash if disturbed. just read up ALOT before you decide to use it. I used miracle mud, but dropped it once hearing 1 too many horror stories.
