I could not use any of the not-to-be-named pre-Splenda sweeteners. I simply could not tolerate their taste AND the after-taste. I've been a Splenda user ever since it became available because... well... the taste is VERY close to sugar's own and, as far as I know, there are NO side effects.

My understanding of the Splenda technology is that the process starts with what is supposed to be a 'sugar' molecule and then ONE atom is replaced with another which makes it impossible to digest so it simply passes through your digestive tract. You get zero calories, good taste and no side effects.

So... what's not to like? The price? That's were the wisdom of buying these large but not too heavy Splenda boxes comes from.

I NEVER put anything sweet into my tea or my coffee - a habit I probably developed during those dark, sad, pre-Splenda days - but, when it comes to Cappuccino... it's a different story. I am reaching for the little yellow packets. A box of these lasts me for a long, long time.

I am very pleased with the taste and flexibility of Splenda. The taste to me is no different than regular sugar, much healthier product. I was very skeptical at first to try something new like this product. This is my second shipment so far and I plan to purchase other varieties of Splenda.

I use every day in my coffee and cereal. I've altered my fudge recipes and my family can tell no difference, since the taste is so good. I highly recommend this product.

I use Splenda every day to help reduce my sugar intake and limit calories in order to keep the weight off. I actually prefer the taste of Splenda over normal sugar. It has a much sweeter taste than sugar. I use it things like Coffee, Tea and Kool Aid for the kids. This large package lasts us a long time.

ALL THE PURCHASES I HAVE MADE THROUGH AMAZON.COM HAVE RESULTED IN A COMPLETE SATISFACTION, WITH REGARDS TO QUALITY OF THE PRODUCTS, PRICE, PRESENTATION, TIMELY DELIVERY AND SPEED.

THANK YOU

After finding out what Splenda is and contains I have made it clear to my family and friends to keep away from this product.

"Splenda is not natural; it is a chlorinated artificial sweetener. There have been no long-term human studies on the safety of Splenda; however, issues have been raised about Splenda in a new study from Duke University."

[]

"In animals examined for the study, Splenda reduced the amount of good bacteria in the intestines by 50 percent, increased the pH level in the intestines, contributed to increases in body weight and affected P-glycoprotein (P-gp) levels in such a way that crucial health-related drugs could be rejected.

The P-gp effect could result in medications used in chemotherapy, AIDS treatment and treatments for heart conditions being shunted back into the intestines, rather than being absorbed by the body."

I would suggest anybody who seriously cares for his/her health to stay away from Splenda, and try Stevia or brown sugar if you must use a sweetener.

My husband uses this daily for his morning coffee. He only needs two packets instead of about three to four spoons of sugar. He says it is much sweeter than sugar and does the job well. This price is good about 20-30 cents cheaper than my local grocery and get delivered right to your door. You can also sign up for automatic deliveries and save more money. You can cancel it if you find you don't need it again that soon with no penalties.

With all of the health dangers associated with consuming sugar, I don't understand why we're not using Splenda with everything. Really, if you haven't tried it, you should order a box. I don't taste any difference between this stuff and regular sugar...and if you do, well, get over it! This stuff is *much* better for you. And you can cook with it, too, without sacrificing the sugar requirement of a particular recipe.
