    Default Dasani Lemon

    Has anyone else tried this flavored water? I picked one up while I was running errands today and it is quite tasty. No calories, but it is sweetened with Splenda. Is that one of the artificial sweeteners that is a culprit in creating gas and bloating?

    Artificial sweetners are hazardous to your health. You are better off buying lemon juice and squirting some into your bottled water.

    they supposedly cause cancer in large quantities in lab rats, but aside from that, they trick your body (supposedly) to consume more calories.

    Have you tried the Poland Spring (or perrier or Pellegrino) sparkling water with lemon? That's my new fave.....no sweeteners, but it is carbonated. I gves that fizzines I like with soda, but not all the crap. And it doesn't cause gas!

    The only artificial sweetener I have issues with is malitol. That's the devil.

    Just get some water, add a splash of lemon and chill in your fridge. Cheaper, resuable, tastes the same.

    ^^I think the regular water with a squeeze of real lemon tastes better than Dasani Lemon. And yep, it's cheaper, healthier, and simple.

    I wish they would quit putting sweetener in these waters! Is it just to trick people into thinking they are better than pop? I used to drink the H2Oh brand and loved it (no sweetener) some stores carry this again but it's hard to find around here. I was so excited to see these new flavored waters, forgot (guess didn't think I had to) to check for sweeteners. I took one sip and, AAaargh! Not only sweetened, but these things are so sweet they taste like syrup. So NASTY! WTF?! I like to just get mineral water and either put lemon or lime in it or mix it with a little juice (unsweetened or sweetened with apple juice) for a healthy spritzer. Artificial sweeteners are BAD! High fructose corn syrup also BAD!

    I tried the strawberry flavor, it was good, but sweet enough that it tasted like koolaid. I think I'll stick to regular water.
