How does this compare to Teavana's German Rock Sugar?

Now that I look at the rock sugar product, I can tell you that the beet sugar is very different. The beet sugar looks, feels and tastes identical to the cane sugar you'd get in the supermarket. You can literally use it interchangeably with cane sugar......no one would be able to tell the difference. That rock sugar is something else entirely

I thought I was ordering beet rock sugar when I purchased this and was disappointed. It is bleached sugar and it just seems more or less to be the same type of sugar one buys at the grocery store. I could have saved my money. I prefer the German Rock Sugar, personally. Now I'm left with consuming this sugar until I run out because I purchased it, which will be a while...

I personally have not purchased Teavana's German Rock Sugar but I have done some research. Research indicates both are from beat sources. NOW beet sugar is in a form similar to cane sugar but is actually a little sweeter. The Teavana sugar is in a much larger crystal form that takes much longer to dissolve. I was not able to confirm if the color difference (white for NOW, brownish for Teavana) was due to less processing of the Teavana sugar or additives. The NOW brand foods are not genetically modified according to their website http://www.nowfoods.com/Quality/our-non-gmo-commitment.htm, however, I saw research that indicated the Teavana sugar was from genetically modified sources. I can not confirm or deny this statement as I was unable to confirm its authenticity. But with a higher price and the lack of data on ingredients, I chose to go with the NOW foods beet sugar.

I find it to be a suitable alternative - better price and easier to use than the rock sugar.

My personal opinion.....I like Dandy blend better. There's a certain after taste with Teechino for me. I have tried may flavors. I am just not a fan :-/ Dandy blend is smoother and even a little frothy. much better, especially with Stevia

Having lived in the Allgau region of Germany for many years, and knowing of the strict German purity laws imposed on most everything...up to and including beer, I'm certain it is safe in every respect! It does not taste as rich as I recall the Allgauer butter, however, it is very good! I also purchase Danish butter that is nearly as good. Regardless, purchase only unsalted.

I like the Vanilla-Praline. It does not have any sweeteners. Natural sweetness from whey is 2g per scoop.

I don't know because I finished this bag and purchased another brand which is only 1 g of sugar. Gee, I didn't even look at that before but the new one seems to blend better in the shakes....You will have to ask amazon about this one. sorry

I have bought and taste tested both, SOS has more of a cookie sugar cookie taste and texture, this one is more of a... mixed cookie, this one leaves a thick residue in the top of your mouth. I would recommend the SOS, just because it has a better taste, packaging, and overall seems more durable. Many people [including myself] have received this product with one of the two packages already opened. Both products have a five year shelf life.

It tastes pretty much like sugar but way less sweet. I mix it in a glass of water and barely taste it. I've put it in my tea also, no taste difference really. Also it dissolves very well, no clumps whatsoever. Now don't freak out about the smell! When you put your nose to the container it has a not so nice smell, but that smell isn't there as a taste at all. I now use Dr Best's Best D-Ribose, which is less expensive and it tastes perfectly fine too.

I always get the vanilla flavor. It has 7g per serving of sugar, but it is organic evaporated sugar cane juice.

I have not tried that one. I will have to buy a bottle to compare. Let me know what you think if you buy one.

The Nutrition Facts mention "Sugar 10g", but I don't think Stevia is in it or sugar alternatives, unless you consider Fructose a sugar alternative. When you found this item on Amazon, they should have the info on Fruitein on their site & look in the Ingredients "folder". Or go to - http://www.drugstore.com/natures-plus-fruitein-high-protein-energy-shake-rainbow/qxp352469 I discovered Fruitein & Spirulien a few years ago & really like it for a breakfast meal or an afternoon meal. My favorite flavor is any of the berrys, Rainbow is tastey cause it's got a lot of fruit, spirulina, white tea, etc. in it. I use milk to mix it in. And I found out that whole milk is better than 1% or 2%, so I switched. Better tasting drink with whole milk. You could use water, but it wouldn't have the same taste, I don't think. If you are Lactose intolerant, try whatever you like, i.e. Soy Milk. enjoy

From what I understand the supplier was changed. I believe the product I have was from before that and since I am a new user of stevia I cannot give an accurate comparison. Some of my friends say they like the KAL brand and the NOW brand, I have not tried either.

Hi Mary. I really don't know but here's a phone no. for U. 1 800 24 BRITA. 9 to 5, EST. Good luck. Regarding taste, I don't discern any difference. Good Luck.

Yes it is. I'm a big fan of Starbucks Chai Tea Latte - this has a somewhat richer flavor w/ more vanilla, but is a fantastic substitute when SB is not available.

Hello Yi, I am not sure about the other version. This one has no sugar added and is naturally sweet. I don't believe there could be another version with sugar added that could call itself "all natural". Thank you for your interest. Frank Calli Books

I did not find it as sweet as white sugar, it was more in line with a subtle brown sugar replacement in terms of sweetness. For instance, you probably wouldn't want to put this in iced sweet tea, the flavors do not reflect what the same tea would taste like & the level of sweetness for the same amount of white granulated sugar. Once when making cookies, I thought the dough was not quite sweet enough, I added about a teaspoon of agave & that lent enough sweetness for the cookie recipe I was replicating. I would try a little 'trial & error' with this item for sweetness, make a much smaller batch to try it out & see how the sweetness level compares for you.
