Stevia
Last night at a meeting I attended a lady spoke on herbs.
She said that the local greenhouse can hardly keep Stevia plants in stock because people are buying them to use as sweetener.
What you do is pour boiling water over fresh Stevia leaves and steep like you would tea. This infused liquid can be used as sweetener.
This would be a great, inexpensive sweetener if you like the taste of Stevia. Personally, I'd rather have a Splenda plant because I find stevia a little bit too bitter for my taste.
