What about stevia?
Stevia, although celebrated as a natural alternative to artificial sweeteners, may not be as natural as you think. It undergoes extraction from the stevia rebaudiana plant using chemicals such as ethanol and methyl alcohol. This has led some to argue that it is not inherently more natural than the artificial sweeteners it aims to substitute. In fact, a recent class action lawsuit in California resulted in a $6.1 million settlement. The lawsuit alleged that the company in question falsely labeled and promoted its stevia sweeteners as “natural.”
Stevia also activates bitter taste receptors in addition to sweet taste receptors. Many people cannot stand the taste of stevia for this reason.

“It is so hard to find a meal replacement without artificial sweeteners. There are a bunch of ones with stevia, but I can’t stand the taste. I don’t love monk fruit either, but this one is really good. It’s not too sweet and there’s no aftertaste. 10/10!!!” – Bruce
