I bought Splenda but it's the kind where you have to measure it out, I should have bought the packets but this was on sale. How much of this would equal one packet? I was thinking 1/2 tsp but I'm not sure.

Re: Splenda
make sure you got the calorie free splenda and not the Splenda baking stuff as they added sugar to that to get the browning effectby the book atkinseer

Re: Splenda
Yeah--double check. I accidentally bought the splenda blend (1/2 sugar 1/2 splenda) but luckily I didn't open it. That would have sucked to start using it w/out realizing it was sugar!START 8/16/06 @ 270+~MG1: 220-12/2/06~MG2: 210-1/07~MG3: 199-3/2/07~MG4: 190-4/27/07~MG5: 180-7/04/07~GOAL: 170

Re: Splenda
Am I the only one who thinks it's mighty unfair to put SUGAR into splenda? Doesn't that defeat the purpose of an artificial sweetener? *thinks of poor, unsuspecting, diabetic parents*Pixiepants!!

Re: Splenda
lol, you're definately right it totally defeats the purpose. I'm glad I looked at the box before I bought it or I would have been in big trouble. I prefer the packets myself because they're already measured out. I bought the stuff in the box that you have to measure out and I found out that the stuff in the packets sweetens much better than the other stuff I have no clue why either.

Re: Splenda
Apparently they add something bulky to the 'loose' splenda to make it a one-for-one equivalent to sugar, so you can just substitute the same quantity in recipes.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
