I usually use a powdered sweetener on my porridge, but recently thought of trying Stevia. To me it has no sweetness at all, but has a curious faint taste of something slightly unpleasant. Do other people experience sweetness with this product, or is it not intended for porridge ?

I prefer Agave. More natural.
I use Stevia and I like it
Isn't stevia a plant? If so, you can't get more natural than that.
Atlanta, if you can force your porridge down without sugar or sweetener for a few days you'll come to like it like that. I suggest small portions at first though :D
Try one envelope of Stevia and however much Splenda it takes to achieve the taste you want. I happen to use one and one...
I've used that combination for some time, especially in coffee.
I don't like it. It leaves an after taste in my mouth.
salt on porridge ! salt !!! tsk tsk ..lol
Put sugar on it. Why do people deprive themselves of life's little pleasures?
nah nailit..gotta be salt ..ya big softie !!
Stop tell you the truth, I sneak a 1/4 tsp of brown sugar on my porridge, and have been know to put a bit of maple syrup or honey. It gets boring otherwise.
" To" not "Stop" sorry, damned autocorrect .
Question Author
What I want to know is - how can this Stevia stuff call itself a sweetener when I can taste no sweetness at all - even when I use twice as much as I would of any other powdered sweetener ?
LOL minty, I once had a scottish girlfriend and even she put sugar on it :-)
(the porridge that is ..........)
EEK Hail Mary....
Your Answer...Yes I tried it this week, and it had a curious revolting taste so I even left my coffee and went back to sugar! I'd like to know if there is a sweetener that is tasteless,
No I don't like it either - its like every other sweetener Ive tried. The best one so far for me is Xlitol, but its not especially cheap.
