Another item I received, from Influenster's Love VoxBox, was Truvia.  I haven't found a sweetner that I'm fond of so when I had the chance to try Truvia, I wasn't too excited about it.  To me, nothing is as good as the real thing.  One of the things I dislike about sweetners is the after taste...yuck!  That is the one thing that turns me completely off.

So here I was, staring at the package and dreading yet another sweetner I just knew I wouldn't like.  I opened up the package and poured the contents into my hands (see picture below).  As you can see, the sweetner is like tiny crystals, not powdery like some of the others.  That caught my attention so I dipped my tongue into the crystals to have a taste.  Hey, to my surprise, it wasn't bad...actually it was really good.  So, I sat for a while to see if it left that dreadful aftertaste...nope, none!  I used it in my tea; it definitely dissolves nicely.

Okay, so I have to say that Truvia actually impressed me and my taste buds.  No, it's not the 'real thing' but I have to honestly say that it's pretty darn close.

You can purchase Truvia for around $3.99 for a 40 ct.  That's not bad and hey, should you not like it, you won't be losing out on a lot of money...that's always a plus!
