The Truth About Truvia

Her Campus Placeholder Avatar Cameron Simcik
This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bucknell chapter.
We’ve all seen those little Truvia packets as we’re scrounging around to put milk and sugar in our coffee on the way to class.  But do you know what it really is?  
 
Truvia is that sweetener in the green and white package that’s made from the the stevia leaf.  The best part?  It’s all-natural, has zero calories, and it tastes good– none of that artificial nonsense!  Truvia is a great sugar alternative, because it can easily reduce the number of calories in your daily diet.  It can be used just like sugar, so this swap is really a no-brainer!  Lucky for us Bucknellians, Truvia is available at our downtown Lewisburg Barnes and Noble Starbucks Cafe.  
 
But wait– it gets better.  Her Campus is hosting a Twitter contest through 9/30.  All you have to do is tweet and include the following: @HerCampusBucknell, @truvia, and #HCXO at the end.  (e.g. “Please RT! @HerCampusBucknell <3s natural sugar substitute @truvia at my campus @Starbucks, #HCXO”)
The campus with the most retweets will receive a grand beauty prize pack!
 
The next time you’re grabbing a coffee, check out the green and white packet, and spread the truth about Truvia!
