You keep saying it's going up but it hasn't yet and won't the rest of the year, despite your prediction of a 500% run by year-end, which would make it a 6-bagger at .0012. We'll see how that works out for you.
And it's a well-known fact that stevia tastes bitter.
Stevia, a natural, zer0-calorie sweetener, has been in the news lately as beverage companies like Coca-Cola have started using it in products as an alternative to artifical sweeteners. But some customers have had a negative reaction to the taste.
As we reported, fans of Vitaminwater took to Facebook to protest the use of stevia in the company's products, complaining it tastes like "chemicals" and "cough syrup."
Chemical compounds found in the stevia plant interact with both the sweet and bitter receptors, leading to its signature bitter aftertaste.
That bitter kick is why, at least so far, beverages sweetened with stevia extracts mix in other sweeteners as well — like erythritol, aspartame, or plain old sugar.
