Hey Debbie!
I use Stevia in the raw. Its in a green box...comes 50pk to a box. I get it at A&P. It has an ingrediant called dextrose in it...I don't know if thats the same ingrediant that you have been finding???? I actually like how this tastes too...

Why dont you just use nutra sweet?? look for something that is phenyl alanine. Same stuff found in my fav diet pepsi Usually the stevia has maltodextrose in it also. Just look an make sure if you get Stevia, its just pure stevia

I have the same one! I'm looking at a packet now and it says it only has dextrose and stevia extract (rebiana) in it...
www.steviaextractintheraw.com
This may not be good though. The dextrose is considered a carb.
What is Stevia Extract In The Raw?
Stevia Extract In The Raw is a naturally delicious, zero-calorie, granulated sweetener derived directly from the leafy green foliage of the Stevia plant (stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). The sweetest part of the plant – an extract called Rebiana (a.k.a. Rebaudioside-A or Reb-A) — is then isolated to create a sweetener extract that is 300 to 400 times sweeter than cane sugar. This extract is blended with dextrose, a natural carbohydrate derived from corn, to produce the 100% natural, zero-calorie sweetener we call Stevia Extract In The Raw."The gym is one of life's best arenas for building the toughest of men. Not because you learn to experience success, but because you've been forced to accept failure and identify your flaws."

I get my stevia from Vitamin Shoppe and it says right on the packet it does NOT contain: refined sugar, matodextrine, fructose or artificial sweeteners (saccharin, nutrasweet {aspartame}, Ace k)
its ingredients are: Fiber (FOS) and stevia Leaf extract. It def. does not taste like shit....
every vitamin shoppe i've gone to has it... or u can order it off their site.. its in a blue vitamin shoppe box.
good luck!

The only stevia I like is Truvia. The other ones taste bitter and nasty.
