Aspartame is gross anyway. Makes me mouth-sad.
I find the taste of it utterly revolting. it’s like a sweet imposter, and my mouth says, “no!” It tastes somewhat metallic to me. I prefer stevia. although I don’t normally use sweeteners in stuff like coffee or tea. I avoid soft drinks in general, preferring fruit juice if I drink something other than water or milk.
Just don't let beverage companies fool you. Fruit juice's sugar content puts it closer to pop.
i usually get my juice fresh rather than from a bottle
Regardless, the problem isn't the bottle or the freshness. It's that the juice is being processed to remove it from its matrix of fiber and other nutrients.
Even if you just juice an orange at home and don't strain it?
fresh-squeezed juice still has pulp. are you going to keep going on forever just to keep criticizing?
people like you are exhausting.
With tea and coffee, I eschew sweeteners entirely. A well made coffee or tea is delicious without sweetening.
I recently went on a keto diet, and my favorite non sugar sweetener is definitely erythritol plus monkfruit extract. I haven't tried stevia but I've heard good things!
I've just let myself get used to it. Like with coffee or beer, it's a bit of an acquired taste. I'd rather be drinking that than sugary beverages.
