Splenda only? That would be nice. I'm about to have oral surgery
and am pondering what I'm gonna live on thereafter. Some SF
vanilla ice cream might be a useful component, but most of the
sweeteners seem undesirable to me.

Thanks, Diane. NO sugar alcohols? I'll look for it and check it out.

Um, no. Blue Bunny Carb Freedom has sugar alcohols and they warn
about a laxitive effect if you eat too much. From their own website
on the Double Strawberry Flavor:

http://www.iscreamteam.com/delightful/cf/dblStrawb.html
================================================== ==================
Ingredients: Milk Fat and Nonfat Milk, Strawberries {Strawberries,
Lactitol, Polydextrose, Water, Maltodextrin, Glycerin, Pectin, Food
Acids (Phosphoric, Citric, Malic, Tartaric), Natural Flavors, Sodium
Benzoate and Potassium Sorbate as Preservatives, Sucralose},
Strawberry Revel (Sorbitol, Strawberries, Maltodextrin, Water, Natural
Flavor, Pectin, Citric Acid, Malic Acid, Red 40, Sucralose, Blue 1,
Potassium Sorbate as Preservative), Water, Sorbitol, Inulin,
Polydextrose, Whey Protein Isolate, Glycerine, Microcrystalline
Cellulose, Cellulose Gum, Natural Strawberry Flavor, Mono &
Diglycerides, Sucralose.
Allergen Information: Contains milk.
Excessive consumption may have a laxative effect in sensitive persons.
================================================== =====================

So while it has Splenda (Sucralose), it also contains Lactitol,
Glycerin and Sorbitol. The Chocolate Almond Fudge is the same. The
Mint Chip has the Sorbitol and Glycerine but replaces the Lactitol
with Mannitol. The Vanilla Bean and Butter Pecan don't have the
Lactitol or the Mannitol, but they both still have Sorbitol and
Glycerin and carry the warning about the laxitive effect.

Thanks for the warning, Harold!

It hasn't bothered me nearly at all - but whenever I eat anything with
maltitol - I get severe stomach problems. So for me - this one is ok.
