Anybody not hate stevia?

I like it. I confess to only using it in coffee. But I think it is the safest of the artificial sweeteners.

I tried it today for the first time in some yogurt I got at my local grocery store..... I didn't much like it.....

I liked it right off...maybe I'm strange..

i like it but i don't use a lot bc i think it's very sweet

Depends on who makes it. Health food store years ago~ tasted bad~
from the grocery store as Truvia~ tastes great

Personally I've never developed a taste for it over the years -- if I have to use a sweetener in something I tend to us splenda or real sugar depending on the application...

I'll admit I've only tried Stevia once, but considering the almost rotten sugar taste it gave off and how long it lingered on my tongue despite eating something else and even brushing my tongue, I can't say I'd willingly try it again.

But then again I hate all alternatives to sugar. They either leave bitter aftertastes or churn my stomach and have me on the toilet for a while.

My weird tastebuds aside I've never actually heard anything bad about Stevia or heard anyone with the same complaints as me. So I guess so long as a percentage like it and don't find it harmful to them in any way then hey. Go for it.

it tastes good at first then it has this bitter aftertaste...i have gotten used to it though. i add it to my oatmeal when its not too warm...im beginning to find it tastes better in cold things than warm . i like it ok...its not the best taste but i will take it over artificial sweeteners any day

I don't mind it and haven't noticed any weird tastes, but I've only ever used it in my coffee.

I did not like it in coffee. I do use it on my strawberries and taste good to me now.
It is an acquired taste. However, I cut out a lot of items with sugar in it, so maybe after a while it was "sweet" to me.
Stevia in the Raw is what I use.

I love it and have sence I first started using it. Tastes good on everything to me. I guess I'm lucky

The cheaper varieties/ brands have an aftertaste. The costlier brands don't. Only a very small percentage of the plant has no aftertaste. The more expensive brands only use the part of the plant that doesn't have an aftertaste. Not sure what the brand name is though. I bought it at Safeway, and the package explains the reason for the aftertaste.

It tasted GOOD, not funky like the other stuff. I believe that it was packaged in smaller packets like sugar packets. I don't use it anymore. I just use honey or pure maple syrup.

Stevia is a natural plant that grows in the wild, it's not a Frankin Food dreamed up in a lab. If I still had a craving for sugar I would still be using it.

I use it and like it. One thing is to use less of it than you think you need. Too much is definitely bitter. I've slowly reduced my sweet tooth by cutting back on added sugar/stevia in my coffee, etc.

It's not artificial.

And it is safe.

Table sugar is the evaporated solids of the sugar cane stalk.

Stevia is the evaporated solids of the stevia leaf.



Not fake.

I love stevia with my Greek yogurt and a few other items. I can tolerate it in my coffee although I still prefer the taste of Splenda in my coffee instead. I love the fact that it is a natural sweetener though and generally use it before anything else at home especially since I was recently diagnosed with gestational diabetes and I have to watch my carbs.
