The only time I use Splenda is to sweeten coffee, but I usually take my
coffee black. Only very rarely will I ask for sweetener of any kind for my
coffee. So I can't say I can taste it because I rarely use it. Still, I
suppose if you must have sweetener and can't do sugar, it's better than
Sweet & Low. Now *that* I can taste... even in strong coffee.
