splenda vs. Sweet n Low

[gymgurl]

Which type of sweetner do you guys use? I recently bought some splenda and it's incredible how different it tastes compared to what I was using. It's like 5 times as expensive though..... might have to save it as a treat! :p

i dont know where you live, but if there's a costco near you, it's much cheaper there.

LOL!! :lol: Really? I'm the complete opposite, I want splenda in my coffee but in other foods I don't mind sweet n low, I guess I just notice the taste more in coffee since it's not as flavorful...to me anyway. I will definitely check out costco though! Thanks for the tip!

I prefer Splenda because of the taste but I don't think it is any better for you that is for sure. I used to use a truck load but now don't use enough of it for the price difference to be much of an issue.

Splenda rules!!! :D

BJ's has a good deal on Splenda. I only use Splenda.

Everything in moderation.

Sweetner is sweetner to me. From what I understand though, Splenda might be the safer of the bunch? I have been using Sweet n Low lately because it's a whole hell of a lot cheaper than Splenda, and it's what I can afford right now. I don't have a taste preference, but it does concern me that Sweet n Low may be more dangerous?

I use splenda in everything. I find I have to carry it with me because many restaurants do not carry it. I am trying to cut back.

I can't stand the taste of Splenda compared to Sweet n Low. Maybe because I'm used to how sweet the latter is, but I can't really ever taste the Splenda if I use it--it doesn't seem to mix as well or dissolve or what have you.

[fit_girlFL]

splenda is the only thing I use

i thought i was the only one that thought this. i tried splenda once in my coffee and it seemed like i had to use alot more packets, justt to taste a difference

yeah....I use the brown sugar twin sometimes

[SAGE]

I only use stevia. Some say it's bitter tasting but eh, I like it anyhow.

I went to costco today and holy crap! It's so much cheaper there! Thanks for the tip!
