Another Water Flavoring Review

Yesterday I found Splenda Raspberry flavored packets.  You used the suggested two per bottled water.  They can be found near the splenda and sugar (not the crystal light section). Anyway, I was SO dissapointed.  YUCK.  The splenda would not mix with the water not matter how long I shook it, even waiting 30min and shaking more and more.  It just kept floating around the water.  Also, I found it to be too sweet.  Then again, I'm not a splenda lover.  I am used to the taste of sweet and low.  I do hope to learn how to bake with splenda though, I figure in food I may not notice the taste difference.

Thanks for the heads up, I saw them and almost bought them. i am a Splenda lover, love the sweet stuff, the Splenda brown sugar is an exellent replacement for the real thing, great on baked sweet potatoes and such. Pam

Hey Lady! I have an old Weigh****chers reciepe that you are welcome to try that uses splenda for Pumpkin Pie and instead of crust it uses phylo dough... its the best!!!

OOOoooo, yummo!  I love pumpkin pie - that is right up my alley.  Please PM me the recipe! :)

Have you tryed new Special K Protain Water, very very good, only 5grams protain and cost $5.99 for 4 bottles of  WATER!!!  could we not get those cheap flavor packs to add to water and then add unflavored protain, will that work?  6 bucks for 4 bottles!

That's just nuts.  Generally I use the flavor packs to just get my additional water in (on top of my protein shakes).  I think spending money on the very low protein coun****er beverages is just silly.  It totally doesn't pay.  :)

A tip for using splenda in cooking (& in drinks like tea), use less than what you normally would.  I found that using the amount called for sometimes leave a slight aftertaste.
