Agave sweetener has been the "in" thing recently. However, some studies show it to be just as bad as HFCS. It's true that there is a lot of "bad" agave nectar out there. The only source I've found of GOOD agave nectar is from here: http://www.globalgoods.com/agavenectar.html And for the record, I too prefer my margaritas with agave nectar instead of triple sec.
