Hi abbeyrd1,
It appear's to be so with the Splenda. I was having 3 or 4 cup's of coffee (decaffinated) a day, with 1 Splenda pill in each one.
I don't bother with the sweetner at all now.
But what i have started doing is to have cream in it instead, but more like a Gaelic Coffee (without the Whisky ). I pour the cream, or try to, so that it actually float's on top of the coffee. Then you get the hot coffee through the cold cream. A good bit of contrast going on, and i like it very much .
I've thought about the Stevia, which to me sound's like a better idea with it being totally natural. And of all the sweetner's available, if i was going to use one again i would give the Stevia a whirl.
For the sweet tooth occaision's, the sugar free jello is alway's in the fridge anyway, just in case the wagon start's getting a bit rocky.
