I cannot recall if I ever tried real.

I limit syrup nowadays due to my diabetes. I even sometimes sprinkle Splenda on my pancakes. Of course pancakes are full of carbs so it is like eating chocolate cake without frosting and claiming it is low carb.

@JoyfulSilence I have heard that the real stuff is surprisingly low on the hypoglycemic scale. Much healthier than any chemical concoction sweetner.

Splenda uses sucralose which is not metabolized. It looks like sugar except a few atoms are replaced with chlorine.

I hope the chlorine does not kill me. Yet perhaps it disinfects? 🤪
