Well I've been using Stevia for a few days and will continue to do so till something else better comes along that gives me the sweetness that I want without any aftertaste.
I do notice a slight taste change in ice tea using Stevia more so than coffee which is probably attributed to fact that I like my coffee strong enough to use as paint stripper.
I've also been cutting way back on carbs which is kinda hard to do when you're married to a beautiful Asian lady that cooks rice darn near every meal.

I have a little herb garden. Years ago, I used to plant Stevia in my herb garden. Easy to grow. The stevia plant can be found at most garden centers in the herb section. I would pinch off a small stevia leaf and drop it in my cup of tea. It is very sweet! I liked the idea of it being fresh and knowing where it came from and how it was handled.

It’s not terrible.
