(i did, of course, because i paid that $1.52 ... i'm just saying. ) it was watery, flat, lifeless. ick.

When I started doing weight watchers & realized 1 cup was like 5 points, I went to flavored coffee with like 4 or 5 splendas & double skim. Now I'm down to 2 or 3 splendas & skim. I rarely drink coffee at home, I prefer tea (Stash black chai is a fave, with 1 splenda & a dash of milk. Yum.)
a cup of coffee is 5 points??? jesus.

i have a sweet tooth but i find splenda almost too sweet. i can only put 1 in a 12-16 oz cup of coffee.
