I also found a great chocolate milk mix for the kids with Stevia at Wonderlabs.com. My newest find to try is ZEVIA soda.<BR/>http://www.zevia.com/<BR/>It has been getting great reviews from users! I just ordered a case and can't wait for it to arrive. Only bad part is I will need to order online (and pay shipping) till I can convince someone local to carry the product.<BR/>Great looking blog by the way, very interesting reading!<BR/>DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4244334257315348958.post-85535172646420794642008-04-02T23:29:00.000-07:002008-04-02T23:29:00.000-07:00I'll have to try that*;))I'll have to try that*<BR/><BR/>;))BillyWarholhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218341496921980069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4244334257315348958.post-40804764138971163962008-04-01T14:59:00.000-07:002008-04-01T14:59:00.000-07:00I'm planning to look into the liquid Stevia. Thoug...I'm planning to look into the liquid Stevia. <BR/><BR/>Though my main artificial sweetener use is through protein powders... and I'm picky about taste on those, so I'm probably not going to switch away from my Splenda entirely.<BR/><BR/>One thing that did occur to me, if Stevia is also zero calorie, I wonder if some of the same concerns that they've been finding with the artificial zero calorie stuff lately will apply? You know, the studies where rats ate more when fed foods with zero calorie sweeteners added?<BR/><BR/>I personally didn't buy those studies. One protein powder I use is sweetened with Stevia for the vanilla flavor, while the chocolate flavor in the SAME BRAND is sweetened with Splenda and no difference in food cravings between the two.<BR/><BR/>But I know a lot of folks who've seen those studies and now believe that eating zero calorie foods/drinks are what is making them fat or at least contributing. <BR/><BR/>Me, I'm pretty sure it was the candy, Doritos and nacho cheese dip that made me fat, not the zero calorie foods!<BR/><BR/>I just wish Stevia was easier to find locally.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4244334257315348958.post-81405359292279762452008-04-01T07:49:00.000-07:002008-04-01T07:49:00.000-07:00I am definitely going to look into this, thanks fo...I am definitely going to look into this, thanks for sharing! :)Chelle Blöggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02878155948127423843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4244334257315348958.post-87523902837397943712008-04-01T06:37:00.000-07:002008-04-01T06:37:00.000-07:00I have been using artificial sugar and didn't know...I have been using artificial sugar and didn't know that stevia came from natural source.

I cannot tell you how much I love Stevia and just wanted everyone to know about it too. I have had quite a few more enlightened health nuts tell me they have been using it for some time-wish I knew sooner but am loving it now. Thanks everyone and if you do try it let me know what you think. We can be the Stevia revolutionaries.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4244334257315348958.post-37847069836356949622008-03-31T17:27:00.000-07:002008-03-31T17:27:00.000-07:00Heidi, thanks for the useful info, I will be looki...Heidi, thanks for the useful info, I will be looking into stevia, and checking out your other useful info.

I can get it at Trader Joe's. It's a shame it's so expensive (compared to other sweetners). <BR/><BR/>Yes, and I've read that they're STILL trying to get it banned.
