Question regarding alternative sweetners

[Guest guest]

I didn't refer to Stevia as an artificial sweetner.

I've found it's a good idea to read people's posts with care as our

minds often pull only select words and infer meaning about a post

without fully reading the post, when we're passionate about a subject

as is obvious that you are about this particular subject and rightly

so.

Also, it's a good idea to use capitalized words with care as they can

be inferred as anger or authoritarianism as well as simply placing

emphasis on a word.

I'm glad to hear you've had good luck with Stevia. I use the liquid

extract in my coffe, tea and yogurt. I've been using it for about 5

years now as I've weened myself off of artificial sweetners and white

sugar. For someone like myself who've dealt with blood sugar issues

for years, it's a miracle herb!

I use honey, molasses, maple syrup and rice bran syrup and raw sugar

on a rare occasion, if I need a sweetner that will thicken my dish or

add some bulk. I'm thinking of getting a cookbook to learn how to

bake with Stevia. Have you had any luck baking with it?

 

God bless,

Leslie

been using stevia in the raw form since the late 1980's and more
