A lot of supermarkets don't seem to have cooking apples now.

That's really odd, I'll have a look down our s/market tomorrow. September they should be cropping in this country, shouldn't they?

We use Truvia, Kaz, which I think is a form of stevia, both in tablet form for coffee, and as granules on strawberries and crème fraiche, for example,

It does the business, as they say, but it ain't cheap …… The granule tubs are £5 each in Waitrose! :|
