You mean, as a diabetic, I can go out and buy a bag of cranberries? I'd do it in a heartbeat, only I was under the impression that they are so tart, one can't eat them. But I could add Splenda now couldn't I?


And the new Stevia product is called Truvia. Coke and Pepsi are both coming out with beverages sweetened with the stuff.

Alan lives on this. He puts it in everything.

Thank goodness it's from a plant and has no side effects. lol
