I know that Hansens diet has splenda in it. I hear that black cherry is real good. Unfortunatly, they don't have cola tasting ones. I was thinking of getting some Hansens someday soon.

Diet Rite is the common one, but I found a new one in the Health Food section of Albertson's the other day. It was Hansen's Black Cherry, to my little son's (& mine) delight...yummy! And I know we're not supposed to be drinking them yet, but we are...and still losing. They also had soy flour and vital wheat gluten, so I hope to make some tasty bread soon. Helen

I buy the Hansen's sodas at Trader Joes. They run about 1.89 for a 6 pack and they are yummy over ice with a splash of heavy cream.
Tastes like an Italian Soda!

Unhappy

I live in Canada, and unfortunately I have not seen or ever heard of Hansen’s or diet rite .

Mostly all I have found is the name brand coke and Pepsi stuff along with a plethora of knock offs that all use aspartame.

Anybody from Canada know where I can pick up some is the above drinks?

Everyone has said Diet Rite so today I made the journey all the way to Safeway which carries Diet Rite. Hope they are good since I bought a boatload of them!

Now if I could only find some darn sausage that did not have sugar. Bacon is impossible. Somene mentioned Fletchers peppercorn bacon. I found it...for 7 bucks a package!!! So for that much I can do without bacon...boo hoo..

YIKES!!!! Think of how many eggs that'd buy you!

Diet Rite may take some getting used to but if you're far enough into the diet that you've lost your sweet tooth, chances are it'll taste sweet to you right off the bat. I love it. Now I know that I was more addicted to that "bubbly sensation" that came with drinking sodas. . . either that or this is like a GREAT placebo! I love the stuff. . . . .I did see one other soda this past time that used splenda in the store. . Diet RC. . . I didn't even know that RC was still in production!

Hey there! I live in Ontario and just found yesterday that Zehrs carries Diet Orange Crush that is sweetened with Splenda. They also carry Diet Crush Cream Soda flavour, they only have it available in the 12 pks for $3.99 but they have no cola flavour, but I had an orange crush yesterday and found it to be quite good! I don't know of any other stores that carry it yet though, but if you have a Zehrs near you check it out.
Have a great day!
Cappy

You can go on the splenda website and look under products and it lists all the products that use splenda.

I'm also in Ontario (Ottawa)....sitting here sipping on my Diet Crush Cream Soda....as a matter of fact. Very sweet and yummy and just the thing when you are hankering for that sweet taste...very filling too. I understand it's also good with a splash of cream for that "float" taste.

Usually find it at Independent Grocers, Loeb and even Loblaw's....

Good luck!

Froufie

P.S. Just remembered that I found some Talking Rain, Sparkling Ice, (comes in a case of 24 with 4 different flavors) which is a carbonated spring water drink, fruit flavored, sweetened with Splenda at our local Costco/Price Club....worth a look if you're a member!
