Denninger's mention of Stevia was interesting, as I'd never heard of it before. 1/4lb of powdered herb is as sweet as 60lb of sucrose, but has potential for bitter licorice aftertaste?
There have been allegations of health concerns, but nothing to compare to saccharine or cyclamate. Advocates claim the allegations are fabricated by the artificial sweetener industry. It looks like the sweetest, least aftertasty compound found in Stevia is being commercialized as Truvia, complete with bulk additives to make it measure like sugar, so a 9oz jar of Truvia won't last as long as a 4oz bag of powdered Stevia.
