Allergic to birch trees? How original of you. Hope you are not surrounded by them. You'd better not try Xylitol then, as they're rather unclear about the source. Splenda doesn't say anything about the source, other than "sugar," but sugar from what? One might ask about other things as well. Glad your allergy has been nipped in the bud, Ladysmith.

Best wishes for continued good health,

You're telling me. :o\ Camping, fishing, biking and all the outdoor stuff should be interesting, although I can safely say I'll be breathing easier next year than I did this year while snorkling.

That same question about the source of the "sugar" occurred to me right away. Cane sugar? Corn sugar? Birch sugar?? This really bites because Splenda tastes good and so many foods and drinks are being made from it. My diet just got even more restrictive... Oh well. Do what I'm good at - adapt.
