    Can I just stick in a little question about sugar? Right now I have japanese seasoned seaweed in my fridge. It's really yummy and I thought healthy too. But, it does say in the ingredients [Bsugar[/B].
    How do you all feel about that kind of sugar??

    Well, i've been wanting to try Splenda, but it's so darn expensive. I'm on a very very very limited budget. So I guess the only thing I can do is break myself off completely from sugar. Unless their is another alternative???

    Well...hmm, have you tried crystal light? They have some tea flavored ones. Most supermarkets have their own generic versions that are just as good! I love that stuff! The generic one I get is called Wyler's Light.

    Don't mean to be a killjoy here...but...beware of Crystal Light & those Wyler's Light drink mixes. The Crystal Light tea's contain corn syrup solids, caffeine (unless specified caffeine-free) and maltodextrin and both the Crystal Light & the Wyler's Light are sweetened with aspartame.

    You can make your own "flavored" tea's with decaf Celestial Seasonings tea bags...there are so many yummy flavors & sweeten it with Splenda Walmart carries their own brand of Splenda called Altern...its the same as Splenda, just not as costly.

    I use splenda and i thought at first it was very expensive but i found that a box lasts a very long time, because you use so little. Thanks JG, I didn't realize there where any generic brands I'll have to look for Altern next time.

    I love Celestial Seasonings fruit teas, too! I've started brewing some, then refridgerating them. If I want a little bit of flavor in my seltzer, I'll add some tea or if I want some flavor in my water, I do the same. If I want it a little sweet, I'll add a few drops of stevia
