Good news! The FDA has approved stevia for use in the US as a "sweetener!" Two products, derived from stevia, are on the shelf in the sweetener aisle, "Truvia" and "Only Sweet." However, the two are highly processed. "Sweet Leaf" still remains in the organics section and it's the only brand I use. I hit a manager's special clearance on the Sweet Leaf packets, I'm assuming because of packaging change. The boxes I got ($2.71 each) say "diatary supplament." The NEW ones say "sweetener."

Stevioside, the sweet alternative.

To think that some people never would have had to live a life with regret because of stretch marks, dental crowns, depression, etc., just because the filthy stinking rich can't stand to be merely stinking rich. Now I'm no mystic-hippie and I love money but to think that those unethical bastards are profiting at the expense of health makes me sick. Health is _everyone's_ concern, even the filthy stinking rich can get diabetes!

I guess you had better stop eating chocolate, onions, garlic, grapes, and mushrooms too. All of those will kill a dog. Different animals have different diets. What is toxic to one is good for another.

So true. I'm still having problems getting away from using sugar. O.o

I've been using stevia and I haven't grown horns or died. It's very potent, though. One drop of liquid stevia (from SweetLeaf) equals 1 teaspoon of sugar. Be careful how much you use, too much gets a little bitter and leaves an after taste. |
