Whats the verdict on Truvia ??

jrusso28 · February 2012

I have just tried Truvia for the first time.
I think it tastes much better than splenda and sweet and Low.

I am always weary of sugar substitutes.

I won't use it. But I do grow Stevia in my garden

I have a thing of truvia...and to me...it is just TOO sweet. I dont really like 'fake' sugars to begin with...but my diet doesnt allow for anything but sucralose, stevia or splenda...so I bought some stevia last night...and I can kinda tolerate it with my tea. Most of the fake sugars taste like licorice to me though. I use half the serving packet and that's more than enough for me personally.

Its my favorite of the artificial sweeteners - not that I use it very often. I think there is too much in the packet though. I usually only use half a packet.

I LOVE Vitamin Water Zero which is sweetened with Truvia.

Do yourself a favor and try real sweet leaf stevia extract. Something like this:

Truvia is a highly processed sugar substitute made by the Coca Cola company. Read here:

I love it on fruit

WOW !
Lots of good information here.

I am glad I bought the small box of the stuff.
I have to admit it tasted too good to be true, thus the reason for my post.

I will look into alternatives.
