Does anyone else use Splenda as their sweetener? I do because it taste (for me) so much better than the other kinds and it was recommended by the ADA as sweetener of choice. Plus some people have bad allergic reactions to the ingredient in Nutra Sweet. (Isn’t that the one that was the latest years ago and in the blue package?) But Splenda isn’t made from that ingredient and is safe for those people to use.

I have bought some items with Splenda in them and they are sooooooo good to eat. Taste is (again for me) as close to normal as you can get. But I have never been able to use it in cooking. I guess the ratio thing of it and sugar has never been right in my tries. ????

Anyway, I have a cook book coming that is *all* recipes of Splenda. It is by Graham Kerr (you have to be an oldie to remember him). He is no longer the drunk and has cleaned up himself and found God (both he and his wife). So he has changed his way of cooking and devoted using his cooking talents to coming up with healthy cooking and sharing them with people.

Once I get the cook book, would anyone be interested in any recipes from it? I am sure willing to share them. I already have a diabetic cook book, but it is packed and I don’t know what box hubby put it away in. (Right now we are more concentrating on getting the other house ready to sell and then will take care of unpacking and finishing the last of moving into this one.)

Love and best wishes,
