haras Posted May 21, 2013 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Hi...Wondering if princess carries splenda? It's my preferred sweetener so I'll bring my own if they don't. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasperdo Posted May 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I've noticed that on longer cruises they'll sometimes run out of the Splenda brand, and late in the cruise they'll have a generic substitute on the tables instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treven Posted May 22, 2013 #7 Share Posted May 22, 2013 I don't trust that Splenda will always be available, so I bring my own, just in case. If the particular ship has it, I'll use theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted May 22, 2013 #8 Share Posted May 22, 2013 To those who responded that Splenda is always available, be advised that not all yellow is truly yellow. Same with pink and blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drews_Cruise Posted May 22, 2013 #10 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Most cruises I've been on ran out of Splenda by the end of the cruise. Doctors orders not to use it anymore though because its really not good for diabetics. A little raw sugar is better according to her and now I'm wondering if Princess even has raw sugar available.:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband uses it all the time for his coffee when cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted May 22, 2013 #12 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Yes, Princess does have raw sugar:):). My husband uses it all the time for his coffee when cruising. Is that the brown packet? I sound dumb because I don't use any sweetener at all. DH uses pink, blue or yellow when he has tea; hot or cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted May 22, 2013 #13 Share Posted May 22, 2013 To those who responded that Splenda is always available, be advised that not all yellow is truly yellow. Same with pink and blue. I have seen this before in the past too, but last winter happily noted that each colored packet contained the appropriate artificial sweetener. Now, if they'd just carry Truvia... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denmarks Posted May 22, 2013 #15 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Now that we have white, brown, pink, blue, and yellow sweeteners what color will come next? It seems like the generics stay with the colors. At home I use Costco's Kirkland in the yellow pack that is the same as Splenda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaerobear Posted May 24, 2013 #20 Share Posted May 24, 2013 They probably would never run out of any of the different sweeteners if women would stop grabbing a handful everytime they left the dining room or horizon court and stuffed them in their pocket. I have seen this so many times it makes me cringe. What the heck are you doing with all that stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treven Posted May 24, 2013 #21 Share Posted May 24, 2013 A month or so ago I was in one of the restaurants I frequent for breakfast. I reached for one of the yellow packets for my coffee, and I discovered the name on the packet was Equal!:eek: It was alongside the blue packets of Equal, as well as that pink crap. That's really dirty pool!:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonderpig Posted May 24, 2013 #22 Share Posted May 24, 2013 To those who responded that Splenda is always available, be advised that not all yellow is truly yellow. Same with pink and blue. True, yellow is also SugarTwin, plus sweeteners such as SugarTwin, Sweet and Low and some others made in the US contain saccharin whereas those made in Canada do not. I bring my own as I find the US ones give me really nasty heartburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not continue with us to West Africa or switch April to May? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
