In response to my email inquiry, Mood and Mind company rep says its stevia is grown in South America and packaged in China. The China connection that I am finding with every brand of stevia (that I've checked so far) is enough to make me go back to sugar or do without. I think the China connection is stevia's dirty little secret that none of the manufacturers seem to be very upfront about. Disheartening.

I looked on packaging and sorry to say there is no "made in" label (maybe is not required for natural products?) and no nutrition label. The package just shows the company who is listed on Amazon. As it turns out I do prefer the KAL pure Stevia powder because it has no aftertaste. This "mood and mind" product has a very slight aftertaste which would be perfectly satisfactory if I did not have previous experience with the KAL product. This product is a better value than the KAL so I will use it once I run out of the KAL brand.

The packaging on mine says it's from Mood & Mind LLC Celebration , Florida 90% Steviosides but does not list any other ingredients

No, it does not; it's 100% pure stevia. So was I and it's not from China either. Try it, I think you'll be happy you did.

I bought 3 of them: Salt, Pepper & Powdered Sugar. As I recall, each of them had an oblong gold colored sticker on the bottom that stated, "China". I try to buy products made in the USA but sometimes I can't find them. Hope this helps you.

The powder in the jars is pure. The powder in the packets is not. The amount of pure stevia needed to sweeten one serving of a beverage is so tiny that if they put that in a packet, it would seem the packet is empty. So they cut it in with other ingredients whenever you buy stevia in packets. The exact ingredient description on the 1 lb. plastic jar I bought: "Certified Organic Stevia Extract Powder (Stevia rebaudiana) (Leaf)." Nothing else.

South America is where it is from originally. http://globalsteviainstitute.com/learn-about-stevia/where-does-stevia-come-from/

I only know there are no additives. It is pure Stevia. Contact Stevia Select and ask them. They are a great company.

The Stevia plant is grown in China but the products are manufactured mostly in California. I have been using this for years and found it to be the only stevia that is not bitter and does not give me stomach aches. The company does a lot of lab testing and does their due diligence.

I looked at the box and could not find any information about ingredients from China (did find: distributed by Del Monte pet products out of San Francisco). My vet recommended this product and the dog loves them ... we have not had any issues with the product (and I am keenly aware of the numerous concerns with pet products manufactured in China). This is one of the products recommended by the Veterinary Oral Health Council that can be purchased at retail (versus through vet clinics); that is one reason I ordered it.

I was able to confirm they are made in China. I have found a few other companies on Amazon that do make supplements in the USA and have comparable prices. Cellusyn is a good brand that I can think of off the top of my head that I was able to confirm was made in the USA.

My wife and I have used this product for years, and it remains our sweetener of choice, as well as that of our homeopathic MD. As to the actual sourcing of the ingredients, I cannot comment. The leaf grows in S. America, but with the Chinese business ethic, (or the oft demonstrated lack thereof) anything could be possible. I personally would contact the manufacturer to verify this detail, if I had strong suspicions or concerns. Best of luck...!

Stevia Extract in the Raw is manufactured by Cumberland Packing Corp in Brooklyn, NY. It is my understanding that this product is made of Stevia extract, with some dextrose added.

sierra-I am using the better stevia and the label is a green color(marked better stevia and not the same label as you are showing. I think you are showing stevia extract and not better stevia. hope this helps your question to be resolved. the better stevia works very well for me with no bitter aftertaste.

I wondered the same thing, as I will not knowingly ingest anything from China. WAY too risky. In reading the reviews, I found the answer. If you click on the 1 star reviews, so that it shows you ONLY those, and scroll down to the review by Gary Joseph, dated August 2014, he says he called the company and asked that question. ANSWER: CHINA. It seems many of their products are from China, which I guess explains the good prices. I'll grit my teeth and pay higher prices and stay away from supplements from China.

I recently ordered this. The label states that it is manufactured in Fresno, CA. 100% Stevia, no other ingredients. You can email the company at (info@steviaselect.com).

What Tman said covers it. There are no other ingredients. The 90% is a rating of the strength or concentration of the stevia extract. In other words, it's pure stevia.

It isn't Stevia. It is a partial extract from the Stevia Leaf mixed with Maltodextrin which is misleading at best. You are much better of getting real Stevia.

I called the company today and asked where their ingredients were sourced and who manufactures them since the container says "Manufactured for". The manufacturer is "Proprietary information", and while they stated they conduct stringent testing, they could not guarantee that any of the ingredients are NOT sourced from China.
