I work at a health food store and am very disappointed that the one you went to has Splenda !! DON'T USE IT !! It is an a form of an artificial sweetener. There are other natural sweeteners that are all natural that aren't sugar for example Stevia, it comes from an African bush and is safe to use it comes in powder form or some make it in a liquid form. There is also a sweetener call Xylitol that can also kill bad bacteria in the mouth when used in chewing gum but also has other benifits and is all natural. If I can be of further use for you please let me know. Thumper
