Splenda is a sweetner that is made from sugar but not as many calories.

It's not as much chemicals as Equal or Sweet-n-Low.

Thanks Lyssa!

I went to the Building 19 in Worcester last night, no luck. If

I could just try a little tiny bit that'd be great I would just

hate to order three boxes of it and not like it! Is there really

no aftertaste, or is it a marketing ploy? I truthfully would rather

not eat anything sweet at all than most of the sugarfree (nutrasweet/aspartame)

stuff out there these days.

,

Thanks for the Splenda, I am rethinking going tomorrow night, all of my good

friends won't be there. (

I really hope you are feeling better. Who knows, maybe I'll go and just

leave right away.

We should get together. Did you get the e-mail from Kara that she will be

home next weekend? Let's try to get together Saturday. I know Sunday is

Mother's Day so everyone but me will be busy!

From what I read here lots of us use Splenda to cook with (I don't cook

much), and I believe there are more and more sodas and other things made

with it (don't drink soda). You have to read the labels. There are lots of

great recipes in our shared files, which url is at the bottom of each

message.

The question >Do any of you cook with Splenda? Also, are there other foods

and

sodas made with Splenda?<

http://www.splenda.com/ and clicking on " product info " (LH side) then

" products with Splenda " (RH side) will bring up a whole raft of products.

Hello stbrettell@...,

In reference to your comment:

è I have done a little cooking with Splenda, and it seems

è to hold up pretty well to heat.  Keep in mind that the

è bulk form is less concentrated than the Splenda that is

è in packets.  You measure the bulk one for one as

è sugar.

Don't try to make the chocolate cake recipe

on the back of the box...

i've done it 3 x and it is disgusting,

Thanks for the heads up . I read that recipe and it looked really

good. I was thinking about making it but I definitely won't now!

I've mainly tried to just stay away from sweets and

stuff that needs carbohydrate substitutes. I'm too

weak to deal with it. I love the taste of carbs, and

some of the substitutes are close enough that they

increase my cravings rather than decrease them.

If you call the 800 number on the Splenda package, you can get all kinds

of advice and a listing of products using Splenda - about 4 pages.

Splenda doesn't work at all in some cases; for example, Splenda & egg

whites will not whip up with any body for such things as merangines

(spelt wrong of course). Splenda tolerates heat so it works in baking.

<< what about the apple pie recipe on the back of one of the boxes?

>>

Do bear in mind that Splenda is also used by non-diabetics for weight control

and also that not everyone believes in keeping carbs low for diabetic

control. Therefore, they may print recipes on the Splenda box that are not

necessarily diabetic-friendly. For instance, apples are quite high carb (and

also high GI) and the crust in the pie is also high carb. So while they may

be advocating Splenda as a sweetening agent in the pie, it's not necessarily

going to keep your BGs low. Vicki

Splenda is from beet sugar, right? Why is that safe for diabetics to

ingest?
