Splenda

**MatrixGuy** · 10-30-2005, 12:40 PM

How much Splenda/Sucralose does everyone go through a week/month?

I go through about 1 90g tub every 2 weeks.

How much do you use if your mixing it with your oats? Once the oatmeal is cooked i sprinkle cinnamon over the top, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of Splenda in, mix it all up then sprinkle about 2/3 teaspoons on top. Is this OTT?

i usually need 6 packets with 1/2c oats...i know it seems like a lot but i have a total sweet tooth. i usually put a couple packets on my yams, and drink 1 or 2 mugs of tea a day (5 pkts each). i am looking at 5-18 packets a day depending on the carbs im eating. i dont think you need to worry about splenda...i just wouldnt consume that much EVERY day. too much of anything is a bad thing

I use 4 packs for every cup.

By the ton....daily for me........that and stevia...coffee, shakes, cottage cheese, oats...mmmmmmm

**jasper1968** · 10-30-2005, 10:03 PM

I use a ton..About 30 packets a day. Give or take a few...I use it on everything from yams to sprinkling it on raw peanut butter..

1 packet in 1/2c oats (but I also add raisins or dried blueberries)

1 packet in 1 cup of coffee

Other than that....only if it is in protein bars, etc.

I don't think that it is bad for you, but I don't really need it in tuna, cottage cheese, or other clean foods anyway.

We plan on trying it in some sugar free baking, but I don't really have a sweet tooth.

Regards,
