I think Stevia packets have carbs??

  • Hi all,

    I have been using Stevia packets and I read that each packet is 1 carb, oh no!! I use them in my herbal teas, in low carb recipes (I made a apple cinnamon dessert - not using a real apple but chayote squash which was great!)...

    I am wondering what others use if at all for an artificial sweetener? I read someone's blog and she recommended Sweet Leaf Stevia Liquid, not the granulated Stevia..

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks,
    Dee
  • I think they say that about splenda also. I believe it's actually less than 1 rounded up. I never worry about it- it's kind of self limiting because if you use too much it just goes tasteless and chemical?
