I use a little creamer in my coffee. Can't stand the after taste of the artificial sweetners , natural sweeteners whateve you want to call them. I drink my iced tea only with ice. Tried one with sugar and the sweeteners and artificial and simple syrup. I go plain and simple. If I have cereal I don't even use anything to sweeten the taste. Milk or cream is just fine with me. I don't bake much and when I do it isn't usually anything sweet. Dont' do the pies and cakes anymore.
