[QUOTE="Lil, post: 736346, member: 17309"] You don't use Splenda. Splenda is the yellow stuff ([B]sucralose)[/B]. You use Sweet N Low, the pink stuff (which is saccharine). The blue stuff is Equal ([B]aspartame)[/B]. Splenda is about the same as sugar, maybe a bit sweeter, and hasn't got as much aftertaste. You can bake with Splenda. You can't really bake or cook with Sweet N Low, because it leaves a funky aftertaste. Yes. Yes he does. Really, he eats WAY MORE sweets that anyone should, diabetic or not and because they're in the house, I also eat them...if I get to them before him. There's been more than once there's been a bag of chocolate in the cupboard and I'll go look for it and it's gone and I've had one piece. I don't mean to indicate that's often, but it's happened. If it's put away, I sometimes forget it's there. I don't think my Jabber has ever forgotten a sweet existed. Now, I'm not saying I wouldn't buy sweets. I'm [I][B]very[/B][/I] fond of sweets myself, especially of the donut or chocolate variety. But he's WAY more with the sweet tooth than I am, and that's really saying something. [/QUOTE]
