Following up...I bought a bottle of Diet Coke with Splenda to try with lunch today. It's not bad. Still a touch of aftertaste but much better than regular diet Coke.
I still prefer C2 though.

WTF is Splenda, anyway? It's more made up chemical crap, isn't it? The only stuff I drink is regular coke, beer, coffee and water, LOL.

Originally posted by kstar Diet Coke and Diet Rite are currently the only colas made with Splenda. Most are made with aspartame.
Aspartame is actually far more harmful according to the tests. It gives me the worst headaches, worse than my migraines.
The Shasta colas are all made with Splenda. I don't know if Shasta is considered a store brand or not but I can't have anything they make anymore. Diet 7-Up has Splenda in it as well. I am most irritated that Hansen's has Splenda as an ingredient, since they claim to be so natural. it is even in flavored Aquafina water and similar items. I went to the store to buy some frozen novelty treats and almost all of it has Splenda. Even the syrups at some coffee shops have Splenda in it. Not having any of this stuff will likely make me healthier, but man will I be a miserable cranky biatch.
