Of course...I should have guessed!

yup...I love books, I would like a library...thinking about it, I think I might fill a library (well a medium size one)

Far more-reliable than "Guessing"
and with the 'bonus'
that it is 'reviewable'

Does anyone use artificial sweeteners? If so, have you tried Stevia? Stevia is completely natural and comes from a plant. I've been trying it now for about 2 weeks and like it a lot. I like the idea of no chemicals. So far, there hasn't been anything negative reported about health or interactions with other substances or medications. I found it in a product called Splenda Naturals. It has 0% everything except 1% carbs, so I assume it would be great for people with many different health conditions. Did I tell you that it really tastes good?

Yes! it is very good, I agree.

I also use Xylotol for cooking cakes, biscuits etc. Just like sugar but safe. The only thing I have to use sugar for is making bread as substitutes won't interact with the yeast.

Well, while I would normally applaud 'the discovery' of
something, less harmful ?
Here is one time , that I speak up and say "Hold up there"

I use granulated unrefined cane-sugar
I had been resolutely 'cutting-back' on White Refined sugar
over several-years, because, it seemed
the more you used, was never-enough, the next time you used-it

I loved chocolate, I would buy several bars at-once on payday and 'binge'
Then, one day in my teens, I bought and opened a Mars Bar
and as soon as my mouth closed, over the bar [it hit me]
My tongue and the insides of my cheeks were producing mucus
~to thin-down the invading substance SO - S W E E T
it was sweeter than syrup (invert sugar) several-times sweeter

My reaction, with hindsight was analogous-with
my holding a mouthful of fresh lemon-juice / hot-potato in my mouth
AND I hadn't even put my teeth 'on' the chocolate it is covered with

Brother Dave, thanks for the information. I just use Stevia for my coffee in a product called Splenda Natural. It's probably as safe or safer than other sugar substitutes. Everything I've read indicates it is safer than real sugar.

I have used stevia for several years. I have gotten used to it. Other sweeteners taste odd to me because I have used stevia for a long time.

The brew by the fireside sounds-good

I am sure my heart isn't quite up to that

It would be remiss of me, not to bring, this information into this thread
Just to be aware, that these 'chemicals' may be used, just about anywhere in the Food Chain
