Stevia

[Guest guest]

I've heard about Stevia from this list (thanks to those who came to my rescue

about substitutions) but I don't see it in the stores. Since I like licorce

I think I might like Stevia. Had no idea it was super sweet. Now that my

sweet tooth is gone, I don't want to chance it by reactivating it! Maybe

I'll just stick with Splenda.

Coca-cola is researching the use of stevia in their products. They want to

develop a formula, that doesn't leave an aftertaste, and patent it. The FDA has

said for years that stevia can't be advertised as a sweetener. Suddenly, Coke

gets involved and it's a great " new " sugar substitute. Stevia has been used as

a sweetener in Japan for centuries. One good thing about Coke getting involved

is that maybe aspertame will become a thing of the past. Also, more people will

become aware of stevia as a healthy substitute for sugar.

Your welcome, I hope you figure it out, It took me awhile to figure out

what foods were getting to me. But most the time it was hidden

chemicals.
