Here is something that I found to be a little ironic and drives home the need for folks to really start to pay more attention to the lables of the food they purchase from grocery stores.

Just on a whim I checked the back of a bag of Splenda Brown Sugar Blend and compared it to a bag of 'regular' brown sugar. The amount of product vs. the sugar content is reported here just as they appear on the bags. The Splenda, for 1/2 teaspoon of product, has 2g sugars. The normal brown sugar has 4g of sugar in 1 whole teaspoon.. they have the exact same grams of sugar in them, the normal brown sugar has less chemicals in it.....not to mention the normal brown sugar was $1.19 per bag and the Splenda was $3.64 per bag.

Can I tell you just how ticked I was once I realized this????

The table could be really useful..

But I think the point it to live health, but live to long..

I'm sorry..Want to repeat that a little more clearly..

Look at the first page and you'll see my extensive factual rebuttal. Not opinion.

AHA! yes I gave you a star for that! Very good contribution to the thread..

Over here in germany a can of tuna with oil is cheaper then a can with tuna in its own brine.

I wonder why that is as?

Thank you for the thread! And its always nice to be encouraged to eat healthy and read the labels. And aspartame products are terrible, try avoid them, they cause more harm and are not natural. And for those who are lazy and comment on stuff that they are making a educated guess based on there video game knowledge, try some thinking and research this stuff on your own instead of getting other people to do your work.

I dont usually drink diet Soda but recently I have been and I was wondering if you take out diet soda from your diet then what is a good substitute without sugar but still carbonated which I love?
