My mother-in-law is a wonderful woman who spent decades using the yellow packets. When she was diagnosed with pre-diabetes, her doctor told her to cut sugar. She asked me for recommendations and I sent her a box of SPLENDA Stevia 500ct. My reasoning was simple: SPLENDA is a brand she already ...

My husband is a baker. Not a casual "I make cookies sometimes" baker — a genuine, sourdough-on-weekends, pie-from-scratch, the-house-smells-amazing-constantly kind of baker. When he decided to reduce refined sugar, his first question was "can I still bake?" The answer, I discovered, is yes — but ...

After becoming the official "packet lady" of my friend group, I started getting requests. My friend Donna wanted to try stevia packets but wasn't ready to commit to 500 at once. My colleague Kevin travels constantly and needed something he could throw in a suitcase. My cousin Rachel just needed ...

My favorite season is autumn. Specifically, the week in October when the whole house smells like cinnamon and vanilla because I’ve been baking. I gave up a lot of sugar two years ago, but I refused to give up that smell. Now I put NOW BetterStevia Cinnamon Vanilla in my morning coffee every ...

I grew up eating black cherry popsicles every summer. That deep, slightly tart, intensely fruity sweetness is hardwired into my summer happiness. When I found Stevia Select Black Cherry, I immediately called my sister to tell her. She thought I was calling about something important. She was right ...

My daughter went through a phase where she refused to drink plain water. “It tastes like nothing,” she said. She was not wrong, but she was also driving me crazy. I started putting Stevia Select Raspberry in her sparkling water and she’s been drinking water voluntarily ever ...

We went to Thailand for vacation two years ago and I became slightly obsessed with coconut everything. Coconut water, coconut milk coffee, coconut rice — all of it. When we got home I was devastated that I couldn’t recreate that tropical sweetness in my daily routine without adding a ...
