I should have read up on it before I restated what my sister read. It's not a simple double bond increase like she said. It is made from sugar, but it's vastly different. Its got some clorine added and other stuff... to the point where it's nothing like sugar. As the articles suggest... no current evidence is showing splenda as being much safer then most other sweeteners... there is some evidence its worse. Like you said Zoe, better to leave splenda alone for now, until we get more research done on it.
Damn. sugar out. splenda out. What to eat for lunch? Sad Panda.
