is there a natural sweetner that tastes like sugar and is not bad or you?

Question:

Answers:
Stevia is definitely a better choice than Splenda. I does not have the negative side effect. You will not find it in the grocery isle with the rest of the sweeteners though, the FDA made sure of that. You will find in in the dietary supplement isle. I don't know if it can be found in regular grocery store, I buy mine from the Whole Foods Market.

I find splenda to taste more like sugar than any other product, without that horrid aftertaste most products do. I recommend it for replacing sugar in some foods but I also recommend using any synthetic product in moderation =).
