I think the ultimate answer to your question of why doesn't something that's not sugar not taste like sugar is kind of self evident. I don't think people appreciate that sugar tastes like more than just sweet, and there are different kinds of sugars that have different flavor.
Stevia is good for subtle sweetness. If you add too much it tastes gross, but for lightly sweetening things it works very well. The liquid stevia is hard to find but it's great for adding just a dab or two to a pitcher of tea or something of the like.

It’s not the calories people are worried about. It’s the blood sugar spikes

Agreed. Artificial sweeteners are dreadful.

It is nature’s way of telling you not to eat them. Kind of like poison frogs. They are bad for you. Just use real sugar or honey in moderation.

I use 1 packet of Equal in my coffee.That's probably why I like Coke Zero so much. Bocha Sweet is the best I ever had but has gotten very expensive. Allulose & Erythritol are ok. Stevia & Splenda suck.
