It all began when we met after work for an early movie. Hubby hadn't eaten lunch, but we decided to eat dinner after the movie. Across from the theater was a candy shop and he decided to stop and buy some sugar-free jelly beans to eat during the movie. He ate approximately two handfuls and put the bag away. After about thirty minutes, he started moving around his chair and holding his stomach. Then, he jumped up and ran to the bathroom.

To make a long story short, we had to leave halfway through the film to get him home to a bathroom. I immediately called the candy shop to tell them of the jelly bean fiasco. I was told the jelly beans contained Splenda and they made some people sick.

Where was the sign?! Why weren't we told of the danger of this stuff? A few days later, I met with a friend for breakfast and had a wonderful sugar-free muffin and a cup of coffee. Before we left the bakery, I was bloated and had sharp pains and cramps. I told my friend that I hoped the muffin didn't have Splenda in it. Sure enough, the owner said it did. No warning posted!

Why is this product being used with such severe side effects? How can the manufacturers do this to us? If everyone writes to Nabisco, Murray's, etc., maybe something can be done about this!

Thank you!"
