Saccharin is one of the most disgusting, foul, nasty *ss tastes I've ever

subjected my poor body to.

Can you saccharin people please tell me WHY anyone still would use it,

when there are numerous zero-calorie alternatives available that taste way
better?


Because we don't have the same reaction you do.
I don't think it tastes foul.
It doesn't give me any problems.
I think it's fine.

For me, works best when combined with other sweeteners! Actually, I
hate the Splenda taste in beverages! (Just the packet form, the others
are nice.)

Aurora,
Taste is not an absolute, it is a matter of taste
just because YOU don't like it doesn't mean others don't.

sucralose saccharin

Saccharin is one of the most disgusting, foul, nasty *ss tastes I've
ever subjected my poor body to. To me it tastes kind of this chemical
flavor that does not register correctly on the taste buds... but some
confuse this enigma flavor for a "sweet" taste. In addition to the
chemical aka "sweet" taste, there is that HORRIBLE bitter / salty
aftertaste. I would rather do without sweets if saccharin were my only
choice.

My sister actually likes that pink crap BETTER than blue or even
yellow. Can you saccharin people please tell me WHY anyone still would
use it, when there are numerous zero-calorie alternatives available
that taste way better? Don't tell me you actually think saccharin
tastes better than aspartame, or *gasp* sucralose? How can this be?
The yellow packets are a god send for me. They taste almost exactly
like sugar, plus I love the color & logo .

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....

Best regards,
Pat

I am not sure that I speak for myself alone, but the stevia issue has been

stuff for a diabetic.


I wasn't suggesting it for diabetics in particular. 8 year old
nutrition might not be accurate IMHO


and yet you want us to place credence in your claim that it has been
used by indians for centuries?

Why don't you leave the diabetics alone, and quit trying
to shove your spam at us.


One more time. I am not selling a product.

Get over yourself.
