Packaging & Convenience

Pros:

• "Convenient packaging. I use a half packet."

• "When we travel (or even go out to a restaurant) we place the packets is a ziploc sandwich bag."
• "The package is lined and resists caking, which is important because I live on the coast."

Product Consistency & Quality

Pros:

• "This stuff is the best stevia I've come across yet! Most stevia I have only used very small amounts and along with other flavorings due to the bitter taste of the stevia."
• "I’ve use this product for years and it is always of good quality."
• "I have used this sweetener for years. It dissolves well, near clumps and is very close to the taste of sugar."

Cons:

• "This does not dissolve in hot coffee and floats on the surface no matter how much I stir…."
• "Lately it clumps up even in hot coffee or tea as well as in cold drinks."
• "They lied about the dissolving. I tried it on a hot cup of Thai tea and the powder pooled on top of the liquid and did not dissolve without stirring."
