Splenda tablets - Why can't Johnson & Johnson sell them in the US?
As you may know, Splenda is available in a tablet form in many
countries. http://www.jnjaust.com.au/brands/spl...1&cid=cat20028 Of course these are not available in the US unless you order them from another country with a large shipping charge. http://www.splenda.com/index.jhtml If enough people contacted Johnson & Johnson, maybe they would start selling them here. http://www.splenda.com/vcrc/customer...UZYK B2IIQNSC This would be a great product for those of us who travel or just would rather use Splenda than Equal when we eat out. Tell Johnson & Johnson if you would like this product to be available in the US at the regular price. |

Splenda tablets - Why can't Johnson & Johnson sell them in the US?
It does seem odd that they would make them in one country, but not
another. Are "tablet sweeteners" popular in the UK as packets are here? I personally think the packets of Splenda serve the same purpose, so it would be hard to convince them of the the need to make both available in the US. I think many consumers here equate "tablet" with "medication" and that may be a drawback. |

why not try stevia instead? Splenda is a sugar molecule with a chlorine
pasted on it. A tasty invention, but is it safe? -- Winning against heart attack and stroke http://www.sonoscore.com |

Splenda tablets - Why can't Johnson & Johnson sell them in the US?
Stevia has been used for over 1,500 years by young and old people, including
pregnant women without any report of harm to my knowledge. This alone make me feel more comfortable using it. Sucralose is new however. Too new for me to feel comfortable with it. http://www.mercola.com/2000/dec/3/sucralose_dangers.htm -- Winning against heart attack and stroke http://www.sonoscore.com |

I don't understand the opposition to a calorie free version of this sweetener. |
