Yes I know you said that.
YES YOU!
That stuff tastes like a zookeeper's butt.
That stuff tastes ok, but WTH it's more expensive per gram than my damn engagement ring.
Stevia definitely tastes different from refined cane sugar and corn sugar. It is an acquired taste. I'd argue though that if you can go cold turkey from other sweeteners for two weeks, you'll grow to enjoy the stevia taste. It's intensely sweet, so you won't need nearly as much of it as table sugar. And it's flavor is wonderfully complex. To me table sugar now just has a single note of flavor. Bland and flat. Stevia has all these fascinating undertones and after tastes.
Stevia sold in grocery stores is hideously expensive. Thankfully you have the Internet. Vitacost sells Stevita brand stevia in the one pound container for just $11.80. Not them little sissy packets. A POUND! That much stevia will last you a long while sister.
And this little tidbit. Stevia appears to increase levels of carnitine in the livers of mice. So what you say? Well carnitine is a catalyst of fat metabolism in the liver. When your liver is better able to metabolize fat, your liver health improves and your serum lipid levels improve.
