    Interesting about the stevia! May I ask what it tastes like to you? A couple of years I bought a liquid stevia sweetener on a whim (the “regular” one might have been sold out), and was surprised that it tasted… Idk. Sweet, but way warmer than regular sweetener. Hard to describe. Used up the bottle, then bought my regular sweetener again and somehow, it tasted awfully bitter to me now. Somehow, I can’t go back now and really like stevia.

      Its hard to describe but I’d say it’s not the immediate taste so much as it is the aftertaste (both are bad but the latter is worse). It’s just a lingering, unpleasant fake sweetness that sticks around for way too long.
