Question re: Splenda in liquid form
Hi everyone.
I have read on this board that liquid Splenda is coming soon to the States and that it will have 0 carbs unlike powdered Splenda, which has carbs, but they are from the maltodextrin or something like that.
So my question is this, if a food item is a liquid and is sweetened with Splenda only (no sugar alcohols) and the label says 0 carbs, is it truly 0 (knowing that the FDA allows a manufacturer to list
"0" carbs if it is .49 and under)? Specifically, the Davinci's syrup are liquid, say zero carbs per serving, and don't have any other ingrediants that would appear to add carbs.
I'd appreciate any thoughts you might have.
Sincerely,
Jill in Phoenix
