Probably this is a silly question, but has anyone seen stevia for sale in Kunming? It's a type of sweetener, in some countries you can buy it either refined in packets (like an artificial sweetener) or in ground up leaf form. Apparently it's used a lot in Japan. My Chinese dictionary calls it tian2 ju2.
Thanks!

Wow! great thread. I never thought about getting it here in China. I would certainly like to see if there are any positive replies about stevia.
Go to Taobao they have almost all

hey thanks,
is taobao just online? I don't think my Chinese is good enough to write my address for sending stuff and I don't have a Chinese credit card so I'm not sure if I can use it.
Get a Chinese friend to order it for you.
ok, good idea :)
if anyone's seen it in Kunming I'd be interested to know though, easier to get it myself, and no-one questioning me about my high sweetener using habits :D
It's not available for sale at a store in Kunming. Other artificial sweeteners are, but stevia users aren't interested in those. Plenty of good affordable honey for sale here.
