I agree.

because there is an absolute tonne of evidence and studies supporting supporting artifical sweetners, aspartame in particular.

Stevia may be good, but it is largely untested at this time.

because Stevia may be sweet, but it does not taste like sugar.
there are plenty against too. Did you know aspartame was denied as safe by the FDA 8 times? Some say due to money is the only reason it passed..but really 8 TIMES they said it was absolutely unsafe for human consumption.

I don't use a lot of sugar but Stevia is a great alternative when i want some in tea etc...

I have drastically changed my diet to vegan and its all about changing your mind. Soy cheese is what cheese tastes like now and Chik'n is what chicken tastes like now...
