I would definitely support it if somebody wants to tax stevia.

Nothing other than the aftertaste.

As someone who drank stevia soda for an extended time, the brain eventually adapts to it, and stevia starts tasting like normal sugar. This adaption, however, is easy to lose if you switch back to a different sweetener for a few weeks.

I'm used to it. Better than actual sugar which causes some weird itching sensation for a while.

Funny Thing ist the Aftertaste comes from the Processing that ist mandated by law and has been lobbied in by big sugar
