Guest guest Posted January 6, 2002 Report Share Posted January 6, 2002 I've used stevia for ages - since I've been dieting to lose my weight on the Bernstein diet - worked great -he advocates (if I can remember right) tab sweetnlow or some such - stevia tastes like licorice as an aftertaste -again only if you use too much.

Guest guest Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 Just curious why it is illegal in England? C Re: Aborted fetal cell lines --- " Sheri B.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi Stevia is EXTREMELY sweet.. What you got does not sound like Stevia to me. So far I have purchased it in liquid form. I have had excellent results with the Nu Natural brand " Clear Stevia " . It is my experience that this particular brand of stevia seems to fare best in cold to cold dishes or beverages.. I have noticed some very mild bitter taste in warm to hot dishes... As for the color others will chime in... What I used is clear and , again VERY sweet.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi, thanks for the info. I am positive it is not sweet at all. i tried it when making tea and wouldnt even dissolve and made my tea taste like garden grass. I have tried it on my tongue and its the same result. I have emailed the website and am now waiting for a reply. I have read all the topics that have been posted on here about using Stevia so thought i would give it a go. I will let you all know how i get along once iv had a reply from the company. Thanks again. I search the web and raise money for charity with Everyclick.
