I agree with you about the stevia. I've tried it and it leaves a VERY unpleasant taste in my mouth. In the morning with my tea, I use some sucralose sweetener (like Splenda, but the Wal-Mart clone which is about half the price of Splenda). Sugar makes me feel loggy and sort of unwell, too. I figure a little bit of splenda stuff isn't going to kill me and is probably better for me than sugar and I simply cannot abide stevia. I find its taste so repulsive that I am unwilling to try to get used to it. I'm already watching sugar, fats, carbs, etc., and if I can't have a little sweetness in my tea, I just give up.
Wow Butterfly, I've been using Stevia about 2 years now. I never noticed a bad taste, ever! I guess your taste buds are a lot sharper than mine after all my former years of smoking.
