Granulated Sugar
Dear Aunt Daisy, What is "granulated" sugar? I have been asking various friends and grocers for months since you mentior:ed it in a cold sweet. My dictionary says "each grain is separate." Does it mean our ordinary sugar? Please reply in The Listener, as I’m not able to listen every morning. Another request: Can vou advise me what to do about an enormous dark stain that appeared on a now bedspread? I haven’t put anything on it, nor have I washed it. A friend suggested it was caused by the action of the sun’s rays on wool that was still "fatty," as she had a similar experience once with a new blanket. This stain is easily 3 feet long and as wide as 10 inches in some places. It appeared almost immediately it was put on the
bed.

I’ve no idea about that stain, but probably our infallible Daisy Chain will help us out. As for granulated sugar, I have always thought of it as sugar in grains, as opposed to the "moist" sugar we used to get, or glucose D. sugar, or icing sugar. But I always use our usual sugar, which is really crystallised.
