Air time

Recently I went to a research meeting in another city.

The guy next to me was watching a movie on his iPad.

About halfway through the flight, he dug into his backpack and pulled out a bunch of yellow Splenda packets.

And proceeded to tear them open and pour the contents in his mouth, one by one.



"Thanks, but I brought my own lunch."

    Not to be a total smart ass know it all, but I can't change me.
    There is a well documented Splenda Addiction. I came across it when representing persons with a variety of mental illnesses and the mother of one of them explained it. I thought she was kidding, but no.

    Google a simple Splenda Addiction. I was astounded, cause I think I would elect to be addicted to something else

  7. Hey, maybe, just maybe he's using packets so he can cut back bit by bit, like any other addiction cut-back method, 'cuz I'd have hated to see him take the 2 oz container and dump it in his fizzy water.
