Has anyone tried this? It is supposed to be a sugar substitute, but it tastes less like sugar that Sweet & Low, and tastes worse as well. It is a foul substance that is apparent no matter what you use it in. If anyone is considering buying it because of health reasons, I strongly recommend getting fat and dying.

Oh I don't mind Sweet & Low, but this is just foul and vile on all levels known and unkown. It has made me turn down tea many a time.

artifical sugars tend to have a very bitter taste to me. some crazy chemical thing. anyway, that's why i can't drink diet sodas.

Diet drinks are vile for the most part, as well.

I think that diet drinks are even more sweeter than the original ones, hate them too

I know it, but it is still bad with coffee, and other drinks

splenda tastes like ass. chalky ass at that.

however, i have to shamefully admit that i will occassionally drink a diet soda.. cause sometimes i start craving Dr Pepper and i don't like the idea of completely unnecessary sugar intake.

Splenda's sort of bitter....I like it in diet iced teas, because iced tea is usually too sugary for me, but otherwise it kills the taste of most foods. And other drinks besides iced tea.

I haven't tried Splenda.... and I eat/drink a lot of sugar products, but, I excercise a lot, so I'm not fat. But, diabetes is still an option.

I'm glad I have support by my last sentence, which I will stand by until I myself am shooting myself in the arm with diabetes medicine.
