Yes, the original 1866 Vernor's recipe did call for stevia. When stevia was stupidly outlawed, they changed to corn syrup. Never tasted quite the same after that. Now Canada Dry has a new advertising campaign about how gingery they are! Oh, please....!
Also, my grandmother worked in the Sanders factory making, mostly, doughnuts and baked goods. If I can find that photo, I'll upload it. It's from the 40s, I think. Would anyone know where that factory was located. [[We're from the east side and Nonna didn't drive, so it probably wasn't far.)
