    splenda question

    Ok so I just bought splenda for the first time...I didn't bother checking ingredients at the store since so many people on here are splenda advocates...but I just looked when I got home and the ingredients are sucralose, malodextrin, and dextrose. I thought dextrose was a no no? I'm assuming it's sucha a small amount that it won't matter...but what do you guys think?

    Dextrose is used as a bulking ingredient. You should still count the packet as .6 carbs.

      3 servings per day! And of course, it's best if you can kill your sweet tooth (although I totally understand not being able to)

      P.S. Some people do have a reaction, so watch for headaches and stuff.
