Re: diet coke with spenda!
Another toxic chemical like Aspartamine and Saccharin. Guaranteed to cause cancer in laboratory rats.
Of course there are already seevral toxic synthetics in coke so it doesn't really matter. |

Re: diet coke with spenda!
I think coke will eat through the hood of your car if you leave it there.
I love that stuff, hits the spot |

Re: diet coke with spenda!
This has been out for a while. Wired did an article on the diet products by Pepsi and Coke. If I recall correctly, Pepsi One won among others by tasting like regular Pepsi. Coke with Splenda still doesn't taste like regular coke

Re: diet coke with spenda!
Splenda is one of the "sugar like" chemicals that was shown NOT to cause cancer.
 In fact I wanna say it was the only one.

Re: diet coke with spenda!
Well, Diet Coke in The Netherlands tastes the same as normal coke. And with normal coke, i don't mean the **** you drink in America, which is so sweet it would cause a toothache, but i mean normal dosage of coke. It just tastes different. That said, i prefer the diet coke here, as it tastes the same as the normal coke, plus does not contain the sugar i am not allowed to have.

Re: diet coke with spenda!
Just because she don't cause cancer, doesn't mean she's good 4 ya.
http://www.mercola.com/2003/aug/23/splenda.htm Stick to a diet with no artificial or refined sugars, you'll be fine. |

Looks to be another "OMGWTFBBQ! break out the TFH" kinda pages to me. i do agree with the environental imapct of leaked chlorine, though.
also, Diet Coke with splenda has an after taste a bit like one of those "i just threw up in mouth" incidents, IMHO |

ROFL
http://www.mercola.com/2000/dec/3/su...e_dangers.htm# "Considering that Splenda bears more chemical similarity to DDT than it does to sugar, are you willing to bet your health on this data? Remember that fat soluble substances, such as DDT, can remain in your fat for decades and devastate your health." |

Re: diet coke with spenda!
I can taste the chlorine in splenda, I love the taste of nutri sweet
if I weren't watching my weight I would still prefer diet coke with nutri sweet over real sugar |

Re: diet coke with spenda!
:-/ there's no way to "taste" the chlorine in Splenda, the whole deal with splenda is your body cannot do anything with it. it just "goes right through". for what it's worth, i prefer Sweet 'n' Low with my iced tea, as 1 packet of that is plenty
