| Which do you prefer?
As far as I'm concerned, sugar is the way to go, I'd never touch something that promises 0 grams of sugar but has that aspartame crap in it, or Nutrasweet or Splenda or sweet-n-low or whatever. I don't trust it, and you can tell; and some people are very sensitive to those sweeteners, my mother can NOT drink anything diet because it leaves an AWFUL aftertaste for her that sugar does not. And since it's supposed to be sweet, that's the whole point, it shouldn't BE leaving an aftertaste, certainly not an unpleasant one. | |

| I like sugar. IMO, artificial sweeteners tend to leave a nasty aftertaste. That's why I don't too much fuck with Splenda. | |

Ditto. Splenda is the nastiest of the artificial sweetners too. Users of it swear by it too, but that shit irritates me.... | |

| I personally prefer sugar but with a diabetic in the family I have to use Splenda for some things. It takes some getting used to. | |

| Sugar. Artificial sweeteners are IMO futile. If it needs to be sweetened, just use regular sugar. If you're concerned about carbs, then go easy on it. | |
