How did you find out about stevia…


(8 year Ketogenic Veteran) #43

My employer, IDM, found a few patients that had a significant insulin spike with stevia. So they no longer recommended it. It may be isolated incidents but I’m not taking my chances with it. Until I do more self testing I’ll just stay away from stevia for now.
I can tell you also that I’m not an extremely rigid person. If my choice were Ace K aspartame or Stevia, I would take the stevia.

I have tried to use stevia in home cooking and have ended up throwing absolutely everything I have made with it away…I just don’t like the taste…I have followed recipes for chocolate and various fat bombs from utube channels but to me they have all tasted terrible…For home use I have found xylitol to be acceptable…I use it in ice cream, fat bombs, sauces and really anything that requires a touch of sweetness…

Thank you for posting the pork rinds, Brenda. I keep hearing about them and I wasn’t sure if there were brands to avoid. I never eat them, so I don’t really know anything about pork rinds. I’m very keen to try this recipe!! Peanut butter and chocolate is my very favorite combination!!!

Thanks @Brenda. I didn’t have almond extract so used vanilla. I also used butter with the chocolate as I seem to have developed issues with coconut oil. They rocked!
Thinking of making some pecan butter and using it instead of peanut butter, too.
Thanks again!

These bars are so amazing. Another delicious pork rind recipe. Thank you Brenda! :wink:
Brenda almost needs her own category for pork rind recipes…

This was the first full-blown ā€œketo recipeā€ that I’ve tried. They were really great. My brain said, ā€œA sweet dessert that has a base of pork rinds? yeck!ā€ But my mouth and tummy said, ā€œThis is crunchy peanut butter fudge and we love it.ā€

Thanks Brenda. I’m gonna search for your other recipes now! :-):smile:

Just wanted to say a three things:

I read this as saying ā€œDon’t be an idiot and use Jif. This is keto we’re doing after all!ā€ LOL
I think this would be dangerous for me personally, they look too good.
I’d love to see a video of you smashing the ell out of the bag of pork rinds. :slight_smile:
