splenda

Dunkin Donuts no longer carries SPLENDA-brand Sucralose, but carries a “Chinese” sucralose, also in yellow packets (imprinted with the DUNKIN DONUTS logo). Allegedly, customers were told that the sweetener in yellow packets was Splenda. When a customer asks for SPLENDA in their coffee, is that a ‘sale’ or is this alleged ‘post-sale confusion’?

According to legend, sucralose was discovered when a lab researcher ingested it by accident (para 14).

Note use of SPLENDA on this page from Dunkin’s site.
