I have never liked sugar substitutes. Their taste is just not appealing to me. Everything I've drank or eaten that has been sweetened with these unnatural substances has tasted horrible. Some people may be able to tolerate them better because they have gotten used to them, but they are definitely an acquired taste. Plus, it's been reported that they are not even as healthy as doctors had first led us to believe. Some of them have cancer-causing agents in them. So, I opt to stick with regular or raw sugar instead, because I feel that it will be much healthier to consume, as long as I try not to overindulge in it.
