Anthony's Erythritol Granules, 2.5 lb, Non GMO, Sweetener, Keto & Paleo Friendly

I have been using this kind of sugar substitute for it is real sugar alcohol. No after taste and a lot better for you. You can substitute it at the same quantity in your recipe and it usually is sweet enough. It doesn’t raise your glucose as much as real sugar. I haven’t tried any other brand for I like this one and price is good.

This stuff is really good. I mainly use it in my morning coffee. I have to use about 1 1/2 to 2 of this erythritol to 1 of regular sugar. There is no after taste and it mixes well in my coffee.

This stuff is good. Works as advertised. I even sent some to family members who use sugar a lot. They were happy with it as well. Trying to be healthy small steps at a time. This is a good start to get sugar out of your life.

This is a good sugar substitute, but don't expect a sweet taste like with Splenda or one of the other sugar substitutes. However, this is much better for you and does provide a sweeting to what ever you apply it to ... just NOT a sugar flavor.

I have purchased this erythritol many times and have always been pleased with it. The quality is great and consistent, and I love that it gives me a good, sugar-free option for a sweetener.

A great sugar substitute.

I like erythritiol. By itself the flavor is less sweet than table sugar and has an "off" flavor. However, mixed with sacharrin it has a taste and sweetness very similar to sugar. Truvia is a combination of stevia extract and erythritol but has a strong vanilla flavor. The erythritol/sacharrin blend is neutral. The other sweeteners (aspertame, assulfame K, sucrolose) all seem to give me problems and do so for others as well. Neither sacharrin nor erythritol are thought to pose any hazard nor does my body complain. Note: there is no warning label on sacharrin anymore. The only animal for which it was found to cause cancer is male rats. No other species nor female rats are effected. Saccharin doe, like other artificial sweeteners, adversely effects your microbiome. So use sparingly.Erythritol is a 'sugar alcohol' (not really an alcohol but named so because of its molecular structure). The other sugar alcohols do not get absorbed into the body and pass right through. Although humans cannot digest sugar alcohols, bacteria can. This is why sugar alcohols cause diarrhea in larger quantities. Just like those who cannot digest lactose, the little buggers go to town on the unabsorbed carbohydrate. Erythritol does get absorbed and thus does not pose a GI problem. The body absorbs erythritol but does not metabolize it. The kidneys remove it unchanged with no effect on blood sugar. (Presumably you could process your urine and use it again.)

I've been using this for quite a while and think it is great! I'm not sure how much sweetners others are used to, but some are complaining it isn't sweet enough! Possibly their palate has become jaded over the years of eating standard sugar. It does take a long time to get "off" of standard sugar! My husband has never found the things I bake to be "not sweet enough" in fact, we never frost the little cakes I do make - they are fine without it!I used to be a sugar addict and this really satisfies my sugar craving in baked goods. (I don't have sweeteners in anything else.) I find that after baking, the granules melt into the product and are undetectable. When tasting the uncooked batter, yes, you can feel the granules, but the same goes for coconut sugar. Running a cup of erythritol through a blender for a minute or two, will turn it into powdered sugar (this works with any sweetener), so if one is making fudge or the like, this would solve the granule problem.I've also found with any erythritol product, no matter the brand, that when tasting it on my finger, it leaves a "cold" feeling in the back of my throat for a minute. But that is the only difference I've found with this product in comparison to other sweeteners.All in all, I would highly recommend this product for the taste and the price! The health food store I frequent, wants an arm and a leg for a little, tiny bag!
