S&L was the first.

It has an awful and lasting aftertaste.
Equal is not as bad tasting, but not any healthier.

Splenda is the best!

Splenda rules all.

Costco use to only sell the little packets. This weekend I saw they now have the scoopable stuff.

Mmmmmm....sugar.

New long term studies have shown that sacarine only causes bladder cancer when extremely high amounts are consumed.

Get the bag of it, it rocks. I bought one and use it with a lot of things. On Crispix, in brewed iced tea, even baked with it a bit.

equal has no aftertaste, but, I stopped using both products a few years ago. No idea about splenda.

I don't know what studies you read, but webmd noted that the saccharine findings are now considered obsolete/false due to a predisposition by the animal tested to that form of cancer, which is not true in other species. Something like that...

Splenda does taste very good in comparison.

Splenda is some good stuff. We actually have a few cases of diet root beer which are sweetened with Splenda - and they taste pretty good.
