When we were about to go out into the aisle with the cart, I opened the door and realized she had heated the cereal. I lifted one of the cups off the tray and this gross, black, sticky goo was underneath each one. On heating, the Splenda had melted into a tarry black mystery substance.

If you have never read up on Splenda which is a brand name of sucralose, it is made from Sugar.

It is synthesized by the selective chlorination of sucrose in a multistep route that substitutes three specific hydroxyl groups with chlorine atoms.

Here is the Sucrose:

Here is the sucralose

They just break three of the Hydrogen-Oxygen bonds and substitute three chlorine atoms in their place.   Please remember that table salt is just NaCl (Sodium Cloride), so it's not like some strange chemical concoction.   Table salt has a chlorine atom and so does Splenda.

The stuff on the burner was sticky black goo like burned Sugar.

This stuff has been around for forty years or more and just now they’re finding this out? At a time when strokes are skyrocketing in atypical populations? Color me skeptical...I’d say some trickery is afoot.

Maybe they need something to blame for their heart dart shots.

I drink diet soda all the time. I suppose if anybody notices I’ve stopped posting someday you will know what happened.

I’m thinking it’s all that foy gra they eat. I know my spelling sucks😝.
Or those little birds they eat while they’re holding them by the beak…

You are not the only one I drink diet Pepsi eveyday

Safe and effective.

I'll bet 99% of the FREEPERS think this article was written to show a dangerous side effect about the drinks.

The real purpose is to address climate change causing heart attacks

Cold showers cause heart attacks

ANYTHING but the vaxxxxxxines cause heart attacks, strokes, Sudden Adult death...

The vaxxxxxxines are extremely safe and effective. Now line up and get your booster and make sure your 6 month old child is up to date on it's vaxxxxxxines too.

Just because excess deaths is causing the life insurance companies to pay out record high premiums in 2021 at the same time the vaxxxxxines started to be injected is NOT proof the vaxxxxxines are killing thousands and thousands above normal (unexpected deaths). It might really be climate change, or soft drinks, or cold showers or..../sarc

Did it occur to any of these Einsteins that people who drink diet soda in the first place are already a high risk group?

[ponygirl]

It certainly didn’t smell like burned sugar. It smelled like chemicals.

Have read that diet drinks are better than sugary drinks at the moment in terms of sugar consumption but that the diet drinks make you crave other sugars later. So you consume a diet soda but then want a bigger piece of cake later in the day. I often give up diet sodas and sweets for Lent and after a few weeks I feel calmer, lighter, and better, with more energy and better, deeper sleep.

Only six diet Dr Pepper a day

I’m cool

[Gene Eric]

No, no, no... it’s not the vax... it’s the diet soda — so SADS, so very SADS

So it looks like the saccharine rat poison in Sweet ‘n Low is AOK!

Ahh, no. Its not 1970 and we arent talking about TAB.

Tab goes back father than the 1970's. My Spinster Aunts were drinking TAB in the early 1960's and back then it had cyclamates where were banned before the 1970's.   I hated the taste back then and actually love it now.   I wish they hadn't discontinued it again.

Your complaint seems to be with permissive parents that don't watch what they give their children.

I have used Splenda many years and started including Stevia which gives a smoother taste than either one by itself.

I was diagnosed as diabetic at least seventeen years ago and right then I made myself a promise to never purchase anything with more than six grams of sugar per serving.   For example I just bought Nabisco Social Tea biscuits that are labeled as 7 grams of sugar per a seven cookie serving.   I can eat six cookies and be satisfied with no problem. & I drink diet cola with sucralose with no problem.

[higgmeister]

Well, it had the chlorine in it too so it was much more toxic than simple burned sugar.

[sopo]

Exactly; but they started screaming about aspartame right out of the chute. You could probably find similar articles from 1980. Meanwhile, , they can’t see a correlation between excess deaths and nRNA vaccines, except in the European countries withdrawing them one age group and one country at a time.

[NetAddicted]

Yes, that is what I was thinking.

[NetAddicted]

Do you take insulin with the cookies?

[nickcarraway]

I don’t think any major soda uses stevia.

[nickcarraway]

They’ve known about this for a long time.

[nickcarraway]

Aspartame is an excitotoxin like MSG.
