coin Posted July 6, 2009 what plant has sweetening properties but is not sweet (and is not a "miracle fruit") ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tenacioustornado Posted July 6, 2009 doesn't mean it can't be used,but does have camphor which is not good in large quantities kinda like sanguinarine it's the only reason I'm aware of they don't use it as a commercial sweetener cause it's sweeter than stevia.
