I hope you are both right! Stevia would be humongous news, international company...just read this:

Stevia Corp. is a Farm Management company with a strong focus on stevia agronomics from plant breeding to good agricultural practices to post harvest techniques. Stevia Corp. invests in R&D and IP acquisition and manages its own propagation, nursery and plantations as well as provides services to contract growers and other industry growers. Stevia Corp. was founded on the principal of implementing quality agribusiness solutions to maximize the efficient production of stevia leaf.
Stevia is a perennial plant used for centuries as a natural sweetener in South America. In 2008 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved stevia extract Reb-A for use in the USA. In less than a year, stevia’s U.S. sales had passed sales figures for saccharine and aspartame. Today, stevia is found in over 6,000 products including beverages, foods and medicines, and this number is growing rapidly as stevia heads towards mass commoditization like sugar and high fructose corn syrup.
Our corporate center is located in the US with R&D operations in the US, Singapore, Vietnam and Indonesia and farm operations in Vietnam and Indonesia and planned operations in the US. The management team has extensive expertise in specialized farm management practices.
Our mission is to be a major grower of stevia leaf and the global leader in servicing stevia growers. Our vision is to be the preferred stevia agri-partner creating global synergies to ensure a sustainable supply of stevia leaf necessary to fuel the industry.
