I thought I had finally found a healthy drink I liked with no artificial sweetness and they had to go and fuck it up

    Stevia leaves a disgusting after taste and is an immediate deal breaker for me in any drink.

      I agree if it’s the sole sweetener in a sweet thing. But if it’s combined with real sugar in a only lightly sweet thing I find it unnoticeable. I recommend giving it a shot.

        I can tell every time. Nasty stuff. Reminds me of sachirine. I get that stevia is natural, but it’s taste is real obvious. If they want to use less sugar… Just use less sugar.

          Like that coke ad where there’s a fake candid camera where in a theater they pretended to swap all coke drinks with coke zero, nobody noticed and everyone is laughing

          WTF I would have noticed at the first sip and immediately go to complain to the clerk “you gave me the wrong overpriced drink”

          For me the flavor of any sweetener gives me a terrible aftertaste, I much prefer plain water

          Same. A small amount of time I can find it just passable at best. When it’s added to yogurt? Probably the worst thing I’ve tasted sold on shelves.
