Cavalry, as long as you're talking about how TON tastes, I thought these posts on the Yahoo BINC thread might be apropos:
The description of how the sweetener is made leaves one with the feeling that these people are dangerous amateurs that sooner or later will run into serious problems. The claim that the sweetener contains no fat, minerals, protein or carbohydrate leaves me with deep suspicions, as tree sap and leaf extract should contain some of each.

I'm confused ...and curious. How does a company like Amazon bring its sweetener to the market, making all kinds of absurd claims with out going through the process BINC has followed with Tagatose. Does Amazon have Gras approval? If not, how does one know it's safe? Where are scientific data supporting its safety? I found the taste to be awful, but there may be those who like the stuff. What if there are dangers associated with its use? Calling it "all natural" does nothing to address those concerns. The castor bean plant is a beautiful, "natural" plant, but I wouldn't want to eat it...or put it in my coffee.
