Of sweet things and flavored gasoline
Hi All,
Got to love the subject line. I really worked on it! Okay, silliness aside, Her Thropyness bought me two boxes of flavored Stevia: vanilla and passion flower. http://www.cidbotanicals.com/Cid-Bot...kets_p_9.html# http://www.vitacost.com/cid-botanica...la-100-packets http://www.cidbotanicals.com/Cid-Bot...kets_p_11.html http://www.vitacost.com/cid-botanica...on-100-packets Disclaimer: I am use to the taste of Stevia and the gasoline overtones don't bother me so much. If you are not use to it, you may gag a bit. This stevia is actually really good and natural: no sugar alcohols, no maltodextrin (liar's glucose). The flavors are the real thing too: no chemicals. My favorite is the vanilla. I adore it in my Paleo cocoa. I use it as a substitute for vanilla in my recipes. (I always sweeten things when using vanilla, so this works perfectly.) Although, the vanilla is rather strong -- try diluting it 1/2 and 1/2 with regular stevia. (They make a regular stevia too.) I can't taste the stevia taste (gasoline) in this one. I mixed the passion flower with melted butter to make a berry topping. (This one have a "tiny" stevia/gasonline taste, but does not bother me in the slightest.) -T |

To me, habaneros have more of a petroleum flavor. Different cultivars of stevia have different flavors to be sure from green leaf to slight bitterness. Try growing some, and maybe you'll be happier with it. Remember that old saying about gasoline and alcohol not mixing?

This one is not as bad. You really have to try the vanilla one in your hot cocoa. I wonder if the company will send out any samples?

the thing is if you read most stevia ingredients on the store shelves they
are 99 percent erythritol or xylitol and one percent stevia... they do this to cover the bitter stevia. so might as well just go pure erythritol or xylitol KROM "Todd" wrote ...

Thanks. > > 'Search - Now Foods Vegetable Glycerine - iHerb.com' > (http://tinyurl.com/nvlxk2f) Hi Bigwheel, Pretty funny stuff! :-) You missed my point. The flavored stevia above has flavoring that you can't otherwise get without weird chemicals. Have you ever read the ingredients on vanilla extract? Anyone for a shot of radiator fluid? The vanilla above has no radiator fluid (ethylene glycol), liar's glucose (maltodextrin), excitotoxins (also maltodextrin), etc.. It is pure and natural. Okay, I do realize that ALL "real" men gargle with radiator fluid in the morning, but ... Okay, now for glycerin (A.K.A. glycerol, glycerine). This sugar alcohol has a glycemic index (GI) of five [1]. It has 27 calories (kcals) per teaspoon [2] and is 60% as sweet as sucrose [2]. Or, 45 calories for the same amount of sweetness as a teaspoon of sucrose. So far so good. Problem: with a GI of 5 and that high an amount of carbohydrate calories, the glycemic load (GL) must be through the roof. (I searched for the GL of glycerol, but couldn't find it.) Basically it is the gift that keeps on giving. Or, as some call it: the pizza effect. Glycerol may be just fine for me, but until my long journey to "drug free" and a sufficient period of stability ensues, I am going to avoid high GL foods. I may avoid high GL foods for the rest of my life. (As a "paleolithic man" I am suppose to fuel load with fat, not carbs.) Who knows, when time comes for me to get brave, I may be so use to stevia that a real sweetener may taste funny to me. I could always add a squirt of charcoal lighter starter fluid. And "we" know that "real" men garble with charcoal lighter starter fluid before bedtime. Right? Sugar alcohols typically give me stomach cramps and make me fart, so I avoid them. But this one, I am fine with in herbal tinctures. So, maybe... Thank you for the tip. I really appreciate it. Someday I may actually get brave enough. :-) The "Little Trophy Bride" says "Hi!". -T 1) http://www.sugar-and-sweetener-guide...weeteners.html 2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerol |

Sugar Alcohols give me stomach cramps and make me fart. (Not an admission that I fart.) Add to that: liar's glucose (maltodextrin) and glucose/dextrose. No wonder it tastes sweet. (Maltodextrin in not actually that sweet even thought it is a long chain glucose molecule.) This one takes pains to be natural. The ingredients: Inulin fiber stevia leaf extract natural flavors vanilla extract silica.

And, unlike maltodextrin, which gets around labeling laws, really is zero carb, zero GI (glycemic index) and zero GL (glycemic load). To get the zero GI, they fed folks stevia and then read their blood glucose at intervals. No effect, which got stevia the zero GI. -T |
