Do you use Splenda recipes?

[PassionateMom]

 Does anyone use those Splenda recipe books?  I have seen quite a few and was wondering if anyone has tried them and how they taste.  I would like to try them...they look really good, but I don't want to waste time.  If you have tried them, how have your BS been after you eat?

Nope. I just use real sugar it is only a carb. However, I do avoid high fructose corn syrup.

I prefer stevia--the chemical sweeteners are further adulterated by being heated and do not sweeten baked items very well.

I wouldn't be surprised.  It's a chemical sweetener and your body has to work to get the toxins out of your system.  It can aggravate already damaged kidneys or start the damaging process.
