Answer 3

Its an herb that is grown in Paraguay.  It is used as a sweetener because it has no carbs or calories.  I use it all the time but I add sweet & low to it.  I like it and it does not have the health risks associated with aspartame.

Edit:

I buy it at my local health food store.  I have also found it at Kroger in the health food section.
