Splenda and Fiber? Serious?
Splenda is not natural; it is a chlorinated artificial sweetener. Made from the chemical sucralose, Splenda is manufactured by the selective chlorination of sucrose (table sugar), which converts three of the hydroxyl groups to chlorides.
Now the manufacturers of Splenda have come up with a new marketing strategy. A chemical with "health" benefits. Are you kidding me?
I urge you to know your food. Processed, chemicalized "food", such as Splenda should not be a mainstay of your everyday dietary needs. Fiber should come from natural food sources such as fruits, vegetables, stone ground whole wheat and grains that are grown from the ground and not manufactured in a factory...
Don't give in to the processed food ideology that consumers have come to believe is natural and good for you.
KNOW YOUR FOOD!!!!!
