Cmildenb Posted November 28, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I was on RCCL last year and they had pink, blue, and yellow packets of artificial sweeteners. You would think this would be saccharin, aspartame, and sucralose, respectively, if you use the same colors the brand names use. The packets all said RCCL on the front (they were generic), but they were also all ASPARTAME. This felt like they were trying to deceive folks who use artificial sweetener. Does Carnival offer actual sucralose aka Splenda in the yellow packets, or is it all aspartame like in RCCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmildenb Posted November 28, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Yes, each color said aspartame on the back where the ingredients were listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmildenb Posted November 28, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Someone from CC mentioned this prior to my RCCL sailing and I brought my own Splenda, but I thought I'd try and find out if the same is true of Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargent_Schultz Posted November 28, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Not surprised by RCCL cutbacks, but Splenda is the real deal on Carnival Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
