It can be used by everyone, even diabetics and children, wont promote tooth decay, and is great for cooking and baking. So why doesnt everyone use stevia?

Rating:  - Disappointed
I ordered 3 Stevia recipe books, and this is the most disappointing out of all of them. If you are simply looking to replace sugar with stevia, this book's for you.
The pros are:
It has a bunch of recipes, more than the other books.
It gives you amounts for 3 different types of stevia (not the liquid) so you are not expected to purchase a certain type to make the recipies, unless you only have the liquid.
Most recipes do not contain other sources of sugar as some stevia cookbooks ... Read More
Rating:  - good book, some math involved
The nutritional data is for the entire batch of whatever you are making. On a dressing it says it is 1018 calories per serving, but if you look up the ingredients it is for the whole recipe. So for the dressing, you have to divide by 8 if you use 2 Tablespoons on your salad, which ends up being 127 which is alot better than 1018.
There are good recipes, just you have to do extra math to find out how much calories, fat, carbs, protein, etc you actually eat.
Rating:  - UNBELIEVABLY HIGH-FAT
Perhaps I haven't read the nutritional information correctly - if so, I will feel like an idiot, but will at least feel that that's a more logical explanation than that these recipes are actually this high in fat. I can't believe that stevia can't be used in ways that are overall health-conscious. Many of the recipes are so high in fat and calories as to be unusable, certainly for diabetics, who need to watch their weight and who are at greatly elevated risk for heart disease. There are a few lower- or ... Read More
Rating: - Still Experimenting
I am still working with the recipes in this book but overall, I have been pleased...especially with the conversion chart. I believe this is worth it. I am a low-carber and I'm told that Kirkland has also come out with a Low-Carb stevia book.
Rating: - I so wanted to love this cookbook...
Because I'm a sugar addict trying to break the addiction. When I started learning about Stevia, and how you can still have sweets without it jacking up your blood sugar, mood, and general health, I was overjoyed. But after trying a few of the recipes I'm selling my cookbook and chunking my stevia. Maybe I'm using the wrong kind or something, I don't know. All I know is that it doesn't taste anything like it's supposed to, and I'm a decent cook.
