I was curious to try PureVia because it seemed like it was more natural than the other low/no calorie sugar substitutes currently available. I had never heard of the stevia plant before, but it seemed like using a natural plant extract would be a better idea than a chemically modified substance in a lab. I liked the packaging, and first tried it straight from the packet. It was not as sweet as I thought it would be, but the aftertaste was definitely an improvement to some of the other brands I have tried.

I also used it in tea and on fresh fruit. The taste wasn't bad, but it wasn't that impressive either. It would be a good substitute for those with sugar as a dietary restriction, or who are watching their sugar intake for other reasons. It fulfills the role as a sugar substitute, and tastes similar, but not exactly like sugar.

NOTE: the reviewer indicated that they received a sample of PureVia All Natural Zero Calorie Sweetener
