Title: Sugar Sugar
Post by: funkStrat_97 on August 08, 2006, 09:12:00 PM
They say this stuff is bad for your health and of course everything out ther that taste good has lots of the sweet stuff in it.  The thing is that most of it is acually high fructose corn syrup which is cheaper and sweeter that regular cane or beet sugar.  There has been research to suggest that the body handles corn sweetners differently than conventional sugar.  With the increase of people diagnosed with diabetes and the infestation of sugar in our diet, something needs to be done.  So here comes sucralose (known as Splenda) to the rescue...or so it seems.  I've heard that Splenda (and most other low calorie sweetners) are really not that good for you.  I was wondering how many of you acutually use Splenda and have you noticed or experienced any ill effects from it.

I use Splenda in my coffee & cereal.  It's a good substitute.  ;)

If my neices and nephews used splenda in my Kool Aid, I would erase their name from my will... LOL

My "diabetical" daughter uses Splenda and NutriSweet. Just depend on what I grab at the grocery store. She has no problems with it.

Hahahahahahah,,,,,oh lawd! My mom is the same way.  THEN have the nerve to be stretching the Kool-Aid down to the bottom and add MORE sugar.    ?/?  Splenda?  Ewww no!  It tastes exactly like Sweet 'n' Low.  You wanna get Equal.  That tastes more like real sugar.
