Splenda...


I personally love Splenda...I want to marry it.
I used Stevia and liked it just fine. My issue was that the little packets got all hardened quickly and then it was kind of useless. It was back in the summer and Ohio is quite humid, so maybe in CA that wouldn't happen.

I use Stevia with no problems. I do tolerate sugar tho, but Stevia is all natural, unlike Splenda that has chlorine in it. BAD stuff IMHO. I either use real or natural ones. I've kinda gone natural since WLS. I dont want to lose all this weight, get all hot n shit, then croak from the artificial crap i am putting in my body. lol.
