I long for a Stevia-powered Coke Zero...until they realize Stevia also causes horrible things in humans :-/
- mazlix 10y agoIt's not 0 calorie, but Coke does have a stevia drink called Coke Life (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola_Life https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola_Life)

- hammock 10y agoStevia is HUGE. It's biggest benefit is that it can be marketed as "natural" allowing you to put "no artificial sweeteners" on the package. Pretty much everything sugar-free or reduced-sugar in Whole Foods has stevia in it. One of the reasons why you don't see it EVERYWHERE is that it's much more expensive compared to Ace-K and aspartame.
