stevia, ugh. granted my taste buds are super sensitive but man that stuff tastes what I imagine sugar would after a week in the bottom of a sweaty shoe in a closet full of rotten eggs. some peeps don't mind it though. just be warned

I very rarely use sweeteners but I like splenda (just a smidge, it's really strong) on my watermelon if the melon isn't a great one. it doesn't have a discernible taste of its own in small doses and has no effect on blood sugar (just looked that up actually as that's not personally a concern of mine)

if you're not having issues with insulin or wanting to cut calories/lose weight, why stress over one or two spoonfuls of sugar a day in something you enjoy? in an otherwise healthy lifestyle I can't imagine it would make any sort of difference

you can def train your tastebuds to crave sweet tastes less, just don't think a little bit of sugar will hurt you if you're not drinking tons of coffee. if you are, three words:

Monster Absolute Zero. that shit is the nectar of the gods it tastes so good and it's full of caffeine with zero cals. and B vitamins so it's really health food you see
