: Following up the above, when I took out the NutraSweet box to see the
: ingredient list in order to respond to Michael, I saw that there are only
: about 20 packets left anyway. So I will buy some tablets next time I go to
: the store. (The Splenda I have is the loose kind, not good for use in my
: cocoa or whatever. Maybe I'll give it away.)
Put it in a usugar bowl and spoon it into your cup in an amount equal to
the sugar you would need. 2 packs woudl be 4 Tbs.
