This has sucralose. It is a chemical, it is not food. Usually called Splenda. Totally artificial and unhealthy.

Yeah, I REALLY hate it when they add fake sweetener to something such as cereal or salad dressing to keep the calorie count and the carbs low. Here's a radical thought: don't sweeten the product and I'll add sugar if i want to!

Heck, I ingest more artificial sweeteners than a lab rat! I'm drinking a Diet Coke right now.

If I get cancer, it won't be because of sweeteners. It'll be a relapse of the NHL I've already had.
I do what they call "Active Surveillance"... AKA "Watchful Worrying". I'm not one of the worriers.
