Ok Hopefully my responses don't seem spooky to you. But I do have alot to say, lol.

For your reference only, splenda is made by taking the atom of a sugar alcohol molecule and replacing it with Chlorine. While the FDA says this is perfectly safe to do and splenda is not absorbed by the body, they do quietly admit that up to 15% of the stuff is actually absorbed, and they don't know which part that is (the sugar alcohol part, or the chlorine part). Further, chemists site that while splenda is inert at room temperature, the hydolyzation that occurs when heated renders it mutagenic. Mutagenic agents can become cancer causing, so be careful with that stuff.

If you need a natural sweetener that is low on the glycemic index, try agave nectar. It tastes good, and unless you're allergic to cactus it's completely safe to use!
