Splenda/sucralose is an artificial sugar substitute. It's regulated far differently from peanuts.

Additionally, everything I've read regarding it shows that it doesn't cause people to be ill like this. The only sugar substitute I know to have an effect like that is stuff like sorbitol, and it doesn't cause people to vomit. It can cause diarrhea if consumed in significant quantities though.
