Bertoni is a perennial shrub of the Asteraceae (Compositae) family native to certain regions of South America. The leaves of the plant contain from 10 to 20% of diterpene glycosides, which are around 150 to 450 times sweeter than sugar. The leaves have been traditionally used for hundreds of years in Paraguay and Brazil to sweeten local teas and medicines.At present there are more than 230 species with significant sweetening properties. The plant has been successfully grown under a wide range of conditions from its native subtropics to the cold northern latitudes.The extract of the plant contains a mixture of different sweet diterpene glycosides, which have a single base—steviol—and differ by the presence of carbohydrate residues at positions C13 and C19. These glycosides accumulate in leaves and compose approximately 10%-20% of the total dry weight. Typically, on a dry weight basis, the four major glycosides found in the leaves of are Dulcoside A, Rebaudioside C, Rebaudioside A and Stevioside.

A system and method of inducing sensory deception in a person eating, drinking or smoking a consumable product. When many products are eaten, drunk or smoked, those objects are taken into the mouth with a plastic object. The plastic object has a first segment and a second segment, wherein the first segment enters the mouth and the second segment remains under the nose just outside the mouth. Sensory deception is created by forming at least part of the first segment from plastic that has been combined with a gustatory perception modifier. Furthermore, the second segment is at least partially comprised of a plastic that has been combined with a selected scent. The modified plastic stimulates the sense of taste when entering the mouth. The second segment contains the scented plastic. This segment stimulates the olfactory sense. Together, the two segments create modified olfactory and gustatory inputs. 1. A method of inducing modified sensory enhancement to a person drinking a fluid from a receptacle , said method comprising the steps of:providing a closure for a receptacle, said closure having a first segment and a second segment, wherein said closure enables fluid from within said receptacle to be drunk through said closure by placing said first segment of said closure in a person's mouth while said second segment of said closure remains external of the mouth,wherein said first segment is comprised at least in part of a plastic that has been combined with an gustatory perception modifier; andwherein said second segment is comprised at least in part of a plastic that has been combined with a selected scent; andwherein said first segment stimulates a sense of taste while said second segment stimulates a sense of smell, therein creating said modified sensory enhancement while said fluid is being consumed.2.
