“I personally like the liquids drops, they disolve instantly in unsweetened drinks, I have read it is better for you than sweet-n-low, I think it taste better also a long as you use just a little bit.”

“I no longer use Splenda. I definitely don't use the pink packets or the blue packets. If I absolutely must sweeten something I use Stevia. It's a natural herb and it kills yeast and fungus in the gut!”

“Stevia is a natural herbal sweetner. I used it prior to surgery and found this website to have the better prices. You can find it in most health food stores. Some don't like the taste but, I have found the Stevita to be the best of the brands out there.”

“It's flavor is better than Splenda but it's cost still makes it's use prohibitive. It is sweeter than Splenda but not enough to make up for the price difference.”

“It's as natural sweetner, but I found it to be a bit bitter. I tried baking with it, but I really can't seem to adjust my taste buds to it. Alot of people love it. I wish I did, but I don't.”

“This is a good substitue for sugar. It is especially good for people who are sensitive to things like aspertame or sacrin. It is a totally natural plant derived sweetner. The taste is a little different from sugar so it may take a little getting use to. a little of this goes a long way. ”
