Guest guest Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Merav, You are right! I grow stevia in my garden in Atlanta. Both last year and this year, I purchased the plant at walmart and it grows tall so has to be trimmed. I use Pure Via and I like it but it is very sweet! A little goes a long way. Costco has the best price for individual packets. The leaf tastes very different and makes a pretty garnish! The leaf or the packets do not taste like lamb which I never eat and neither taste like liquorice, which I love and eat all the time. I always say that I love healthy food and I hate the taste of most unhealthy food combos that others love. I eat to live but hey, I love spinach right out of the can...lol:) Sent from my iPhone > > BUt here is one thought I have - > taste is a very subjective issue.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Merav, You are right! I grow stevia in my garden in Atlanta. Both last year and this year, I purchased the plant at walmart and it grows tall so has to be trimmed. I use Pure Via and I like it but it is very sweet! A little goes a long way. Costco has the best price for individual packets. The leaf tastes very different and makes a pretty garnish! The leaf or the packets do not taste like lamb which I never eat and neither taste like liquorice, which I love and eat all the time. I always say that I love healthy food and I hate the taste of most unhealthy food combos that others love. I eat to live but hey, I love spinach right out of the can...lol:) Sent from my iPhone > > BUt here is one thought I have - > taste is a very subjective issue.
