Hey everyone,

I've been drinking these "Water-Plus" drinks. The bottle says it has less than 0.1 carbs in it.

Have you tried these ?

Are they lying ?

Hi Dave,

No they are not lying, but most do contain aspartame. I just had Fruit20 plus and it is made with Splenda....and its very good with lots of different flavors.

I had to pipe in... yup, these are my new favourite! (Water plus) I really wish they weren't so expensive, and can't seem to get off the peach flavour, although I can stand the madarin. I know there's sweetener, and probably aspartemene, but it must not be very much because they're not that sweet really. I was dissapointed to find out that there was sweetener....

I'd also like to find something similar, but don't know if this fruit20 is in australia??

i find the toquay de-lite and reef in my local safeway, they use sweetners which are fine. you might want to call and find out if they stock in your area. others i know use LA Ice, but i can't find that for some reason.

I got some of this Toquay de-lite and a bottle of LA Ice
Do these use splenda as the sweetner ? They dont specifically state they just say artifical sweetner

Ok I kinda answered my own question and found the listings of what all the different sweetner numbers mean, what is weird thought is LA Ice seems to have sucralose and the nutrasweet sweetner as well, why do some drinks use two??
