No way, absolutely not! I accidentally bought a drink by Ocean Spray and drank it.......boy, did it have a horrid aftertaste....but too late......I then read where it had Splenda in it....eeeeeee yuck! No more, no way.....couldn't get rid of the aftertaste for over an hour!!!!!! We check labels very carefully for artificial sweeteners.....they are bad for a person!
Actually I pretty much stay with just plain old sugar!!
my sis in law gave us a box of those - nutra sweet.. i didnt like the taste and have given them away also...
and after that i learned aspartame have side effects, very bad side effects on humans
and that is why i stay away from them
Yup in my diet coke every day
Me, too!
I am very chemically sensitive and have to be very careful with this. My youngest daughter will literally vomit within 10 minutes of consuming any of them. She accidentally ate sugar-free jello at a friends house.
Nope don't use them.
I try to avoid them
NO they make me sick - usually dizzy but sometimes they trigger migraines and vomiting if there was a lot
yep I got use to WIlliams pancake syrup. He's diabetic, other than that and a rare Propel that's it.
I put splenda in my tea every morning but that is about it
Ido drink propel too
Yup, I use equal in my coffee everyday
Yes, I use Splenda in my unsweet tea.
I've used it all for years and years without any side effects. I use one or the other just about every day, several times a day.
I try not to. I would just as soon have taste to my food and deal with the calories from real sugar.
If I have too much of most artificial sweeteners I get a a migraine. There are are a few that I can deal with, but not many.
I do have it in my diet soda but limit those to once a day.
Nope, try to avoid all those chemically altered things...
I do not knowingly eat the stuff. But I am sure it is in more foods than I am aware.
Splenda in my coffee and unsweet tea.
I never use them
I use Splenda or Equal but not a large quantity. These are the only two that don't make me nauseus.
Maybe those that are getting sick are using the ones that have saccharine in them.
My daughter can not tolerate any of them.
yes
I am a label reading freak
I use Splenda in my coffee.
Ick! No. Only real sugar or honey in my tea! I can't stand the taste of fake sweeteners.
