Thank God for Splenda! I can still have coffee with Splenda sweetened vanilla, hazelnut, kahlua, or raspberry syrups. (Yea, I like drinks with little umbrellas too, what’s it to ya?) There are so many treats made with Splenda now that I really have no need for sugar. I have substituted Splenda for sugar in many recipes and it tastes great. Splenda also makes brown sugar that’s really good on ham. Andes Mints, Coffee Nips, and Miniature Reese’s Cups are available with Splenda, and they taste as good as the real thing. I have been seeing the sugar alcohol content added to many labels recently. I don’t know exactly what this is, so I will check into it some before I get too carried away. According to most labels sugar alcohol appears to be ok.
