Where you CAN'T find Sweet-n-Low....
"Pat McGroin" wrote in message om... I just saw a TV commercial for Sweet-n-Low, in which they show aliens on another planet using their product. During said commercial, they claim "Sweet-n-Low is EVERYWHERE!" I'm here to tell you it's NOT. I think there should be a web site where people can add the name and information nationwide about public establishments wherein you CANNOT flavor your iced tea with a "pink one." In Tucson Arizona there is a WONDERFUL sandwich place called Beyond Bread. Absolutely the BEST sandwiches you've ever had. My wife LOVES the place, and wants me to take her there all the time. I love their sandwiches, but actually tell her, "Let's go someplace else. Remember, honey, they don't have Sweet-n-Low there." She usually ends up winning (those sandwiches are REALLY good) but I almost always put up a fight. If nine people think it's worthy, I'll create the web site.... Just curious as to what you'd use the Sweet-n-Low in? I say this because I have never used a packet of sugar or any other sweetener in a restaurant. In fact at home I might use sweeteners once or twice a year in some recipe. -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

Stevia is a natural plant that is 10 - 12 times sweeter then sugar( the extract is 300 times sweeter ), has virtually no calories, has been used by Native Americans safely for centuries and has been used safely by Japan for over 2 decades. Nonsense! Let's not get back to this again! There are also sugar alchohols like xlyotol ( sp? ) that do not pass through the intestine so are non caloric. They're also laxatives. -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

Was banned......years and years ago......as was saccharine( aka sweet-n-low ) Now you're lying Steve! Stevia has since proved safe. Beyond 20 years of heavy use in Japan it has also been used heavily in Europe and for hundreds of years by Paraguay Indians. It's banned in Europe. Another lie! It is sold in just about every health food store I have been in and I live in the US. Yeah. That's because it is illegal to sell it as a food. snip -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

"Steve" wrote in message ... Stevia is not poison, there is ample documentation that it is a safe sweetner for those who care to look. There is more than ample documentation pointing out the dangers of it. My mentioning of it was in the spirit of a friendly tip. I gain or lose nothing if people choose to use it. How is telling us to eat poison a friendly tip? Do you even have diabetes? You post is gratuitiously rude, misinformed, and narrow minded. And yours is just misinformed and narrow minded. -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |

"FOB" wrote in message y.com... Coffee or tea are very common uses for them. Oh. I can't stand any kind of sweetener in my coffee or tea. Ruins the taste, I think. -- Type 2 http://users.bestweb.net/~jbove/ |
