Dej, I had quite a reaction to Splenda. I tried a half packet in a cup of java at the Natural Foods Store (Co-op,very good store). Before I got to the check out, I was so clumsy and spastic I could not check out. I tried, but the clerk thought I was having a serious attack and called 911. Of course this passed off quickly and I was once more embarrassed by 911 being called, but I have to steel myself to that possibility.
