Default Non-aspartame products in Canada?

I know I should be drinking straight water, but my sweet tooth is driving
me nuts. I'm usually drinking Diet Kool-aid or other sugar-free juices. I
can't seem to find any without aspartame though! I can't seem to find
*anything* without aspartame! Diet Jello, every diet pop I look at... all
with aspartame.

I have Splenda at home for my own use, but trying to grab a drink at
school is making me nuts.

Can any other Canadians tell me what I can buy that doesn't have aspartame
in it?

I seem to be having the same problem. I have Splenda for cooking, but all
the "sugar free" products I buy are aspartame. I actually haven't found
that it's been a problem with my weight loss though. I've lost 23 pounds in
48 days, and I have no complaints with that at all!

Not sure I'm doing this right... I'm new to newsgroups.. :-(

If you got to www.splenda.com you can get an adobe printout of all the
products that they are found in. :-) I haven't been there in a while so I
don't remember if it had any Canadian items, but may be worth it to check
out.

Look for diet crush, orange or cream soda flavors. They're made with
Splenda.

Fellow Canadian here! Yep, I noticed that too. Although I did find
some Jello at Sobeys(I'm in New Brunswick) that was sweetened with
Splenda.

I found this on a website about products available in Canada

http://www.lowcarbluxury.com/tips.html

HereΉs just a snip of the products .. More information is on the page.

Take a trip to Canada?
If you're a US resident, but live within driving distance of Canada (or
even a 2-3 hour drive away), it might be a good idea to make the trip to
"get a few supplies." While Splenda is now available on grocery shelves here
in the U.S., there are still Splenda sweetened products that we can't get
here. Browsing through our Product Review areas, you'll see a lot of them
listed. Among our favorites to bring back a
€ Carnation canned thick cream
€ Cyclamate-based sweeteners (see more below)
€ e.d. smith's no-sugar (Splenda sweetened) jams
€ Smucker's jams (in Canada they are sweetened with Splenda)
€ Chapman's No Sugar Ice Creams (Splenda sweetened -- I bring a
cooler and tote home tons of it!)
€ Hunt's Juicy Gels (Strawberry and Orange - Splenda sweetened)
€ Crush Brand sugar-free drinks (orange, grape, cream soda - Splenda
sweetened)
