Sugar substitutes

Do you use sugar substitutes?

Stevia, when I'm low on sugar. I'm not much for the taste on it's own, but it does well as a sweetener booster when there's already a little sugar added.

Nope.

I specifically look to avoid aspartame because I'm not entirely convinced by either side's arguments.

I actively avoid saccharine because it has a foul aftertaste.

I generally avoid others, although I use some products that use sucralose because they offer enough benefit to me to overlook the additive.

Others - stevia, xylitol etc - I tend not to pay too much attention to.

Overall I'd prefer places just used sugar.

Yes I throw the cheapest stuff in my tea, because I drink loads of it.

I know some use Sugar in the Raw as a better means.
