    I'm Actually thinking of switching from Splenda to sugar. A gram is only 1carb /4 calories right, I could afford a few daily in coffee or yogurt

    I agree. In my opinion, it's not the sugar I sprinkle on my food that's the big problem, it's the sugars cooked into commercial foods ... Including HFCS. Same deal with salt.

    But if Dr Oz said it would help it would fly off the shelves. Hes such an *kitten*. ANyway I have used splenda for years and I have 10 toes and 5 fingers on all three of my hands so I am good.

    My favorite semi-artificial sweetener at present is a newer Splenda product called Nectresse made with something called monk fruit ... I prefer its taste to the others. Stevia has a bitter aftertaste to me though I don't mind it in coffee/tea.

    As for the extra limbs, I have some ideas for a Hallowe'en costume I'm working on ...
