Splenda Flavor Blends for Coffee...


I didn't expect it to taste like a real cafe mocha, but neither did I expect it to taste THIS awful! :puke:

1. Coffee should be flavored like . . . coffee.
Nothing else.

If you stick to that rule, you'll never go wrong.

2. I couldn't decide if I wanted coffee or hot chocolate....
and I do like a good mocha java every once in a while, so I thought this might be a good substitute.

But I was wrong. VERY wrong. I've eaten 3 Altoids, and the taste is still with me!

6. I have never tried the mocha Splenda, but I have used
the hazelnut flavor and I liked it. Now and then I enjoy a cup of hazelnut coffee, but not often enough to buy and use a package of the flavored ground coffee before it starts tasting stale. I had tried the flavored coffee creamers (I use Splenda and creamer in my coffee anyway), but I found them to add too much sweetness, even if I didn't use any sweetener. The Splenda hazelnut flavor with my usual creamer works fine for me.

7. That headline is fun to say, over and over, really fast.
Oh, dear. I've had too much coffee already.

And it's only 4:45 a.m. ET.

:woohoo:
