What things made with splenda can you find in your GROCERY store?
 
So far I have found very few but hopefully more to come.
splenda ( got a good deal at walmart 3 boxes for 10 bucks)
juicey gels ( just this week)
diet crush pop
Oscars syrup

told you list was short

forgot to add the Baskin robins chocolate mint hard candies but the week I had the bag ( 3 a day at most) I didn't loose any lbs

Aw, I really like spenda. Especially as I can't stomach (literally) asperatame!

Why don't more companys make products using splenda??

i tried this cabana fruit flavored water thing....i think it was tropical cherry or something....very refreshing!

It's interesting isn't it, since I think Splenda was invented here and approved for use in Canada before the US, yet it's sooo hard to find products with it.

I find lots of products with splenda in it... Lite Ocean Spray Cranberry... Most Light drinks such as Fruitee.. as well as most juice drinks house brands our compliments, pc... etc... It is not always listed as splenda.... It will say sucralose on the front... Read the labels and you will find lots

The problem with light fruit juices is that there is enough sweetner in it to be listed on the label, but they use tons of "concentrated white grape/pear juice" which is essentially liquid glucose.

Not LC in the least.

Splenda is VERY VERY VERY EXPENSIVE compared to other sweetners. I can't remember the amount but it was incredibly more. A friend of mine works for a soft drink company as the QA manager and I asked her the same question.....

I wonder when their patent expires. It'll be cheaper once it's made generically, like aspartame, etc. :thup:
