I too have discovered Stevia. You can buy packets of it (like Splenda and the other more harmful aspartame sweetners) and carry it in your purse.

I make a pitcherful of green tea every day or two - I use decaf. green tea, let it cool, and then add Stevia to taste. I use a brand called Pure-le Natural One to One Spoonable Stevia for this. I also use it for cooking - in my sweet and sour meatballs recipe I totally replaced regular sugar with this. I have not tried to use it in baking goods.

Pure-le Natural Products has its headquarters in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. I don't know if it available in the US. Website is www.purelinatural.com

all the best
