I'm also not fond of artificial sweetners except in sodas.
I know what you mean. Aspartame, like MSG, makes me sick, and I hate Saccharine. I find that Splenda tastes OK, but I have yet to cook with it. Have you had any experience with how it behaves in recipes?
My mother-in-law uses Splenda in baking, and it comes out well if you're not a supertaster. Examples would be cheese cake, pumpkin custard, and cranberry sauce. You substitute one on one with sugar. It may not come out as well for cakes and cookies.
I'm a supertaster, unfortunately, so Splenda-sweetened things taste a little bitter to me.
