I spent a summer in the US once and I remember all the sweetened drinks tasting... oily almost. HFCS has a really syrupy mouth feel that's very unpleasant if you're not used to it.
I'm not a fan of it myself, regular sugar is more than sweet enough.
Yep, Stevia is super sweet as well. A tiny amount is powerful.
Yep, it has a viscous texture that it is almost slimy.
