curious

Where have all the pink packets gone?
I am a little bit obsessed with sweet n low.  I have always used it in my iced tea, but I started using it in my coffee a few years ago when I realized I needed only two pinks compared to the six sugars I was using.  Seriously I am a sweet junkie.  Anyway, my beloved pink packets are becoming a thing of the past.  I have noticed in the restaurants in New York, Disney World and Las Vegas that the choices are now Splenda and sugar - not even Equal makes the cut.  McDonald's has stopped carrying it and so has my local gas station.  I  started carrying the packets in my purse in case of such an emergency because I just cannot do the other stuff.  I know, I know - FREAK.  A couple of years ago I bought the mega box from Costco for work in Dallas and was the subject of many jokes, but I still have that box at my house and I am thinking I should start using it sparingly.  Ever saw the "sponge" episode on Seinfeld?  I think I am going to have to decide if something is "pink worthy."  I am thinking that I am the only one with such a dilemma because I don't hear anyone else complaining.  Just another one of the many quirks I have :)
