But seriously, I just don't trust all this synthetic crap. Face it, humans can't do it the same as mother nature. The only exception is synthetic oil. I'll take my chances with 100+ calories thank you.
Um, isn't splenda just sucralose with lots of inert powder around it? The average large box of splenda has like a teaspoon or two of scuralose and the rest is random powder stuff (dextrose and/or maltodextrin?). Sucralose is made from sugar so.... it seems fairly natural, at least more natural than nutrasweet.

You do realise sucralose is chlorinated sucrose right?
