Let me start by saying I LOVE Stevita Spoonable so much that I’m not including my Amazon affiliate link because I want everyone to know this is an unbiased post.  I bought a small jar (2.8 oz) from Amazon a little while ago. I had been using other stevia products in my oatmeal, but wanted to try this brand.

I admit that I prefer to use spoonable stevia for my oatmeal instead of having to deal with packets. I know that many people prefer the packets, but I’d rather not have to deal with them when I’m trying to make my breakfast oatmeal before I’m fully awake. Of course, the packets are great for traveling, but a jar and a spoon are much easier for me to deal with when my eyes are still bleary.

In case you’re not familiar with stevia, it is gluten free, has no carbs and no calories. It is derived from the Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni, ” a perennial plant that can reach 4 ft tall and is native of the highlands of central southeast South America covering portions of Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina.”

I think that Stevita stevia is comparable to any other stevia powder on the market and is much better priced. For example, a 16 oz jar of Stevita powder costs about $15-20, but another brand is selling the same amount for $64! Also, a little bit of Stevita seems to go a long way. When I was using packets, it took four packets to sweeten my oatmeal to taste. But when I use the Stevita, a scant teaspoon sweetens it perfectly for me.

Stevita also offers stevia-sweetened products, like flavored liquids and stevia-sweetened gum. I’m hoping that they’ll have cake mixes, cookie mixes etc one day, but for now, I’m a happy and loyal user of their spoonable stevia. If you want to give up sugar, aspartame or saccharine, make sure to try Stevita stevia. I’m hoping that the company is wildly successful because I want to be able to buy their products for years to come.
