I had a similar experience with 7-Up .. thought it was diet ... and had a funny taste after ... and my teeth felt like they were coated with grunge. I wonder if it's because sugar causes the bacteria to go nuts, or makes the saliva more acid or something?
About stevia ... I tried it a long, long time ago, before it was popular and readily available like it is now. It was only available at the health food store as the green powder. It tasted like stagnant pond scum, except sweet.. bleeahh .. .. Years later I am reading about using it for lowcarbing and I thought to myself No Way!!
But I read your posts, said you used it, so I tried it again (I have a clear liquid concentrate) and it's wonderful. Tastes no different to me than the liquid cyclamate SugarTwin. The aftertaste is very slight, and actually pleasant ... and works very well in herbal tea.
