This approach is one that is more likely to guarantee you have a good time. Perhaps you could even have fun if your luggage was lost and your costume plans have gone out the window... (Hedo folks would no doubt help you make new costumes !)
It's a good approach for any traveler to take!
However if Splenda is what tickles your taste buds, nothing wrong with bringing your own (I try to avoid artificial sweetners so wouldn't know the difference). I threw a couple of my favorite energy drinks in my luggage on my last trip and really enjoyed them -especially knowing I couldn't have had that brand if I didn't have my own stash.
I don't know how much pleasure you derive from Heinz but I doubt it's enough for a bottle's worth of cargo space. Maybe save a handful of fast food packets to bring (in a ziplock). Or you could free yourself from the clutches of its addictive hold on you and do what PNK said -forget about it ;-)
But I think the spirit of PNK's statement is about being open to adventure and not fixating on everything being just so. I want to keep this in mind when I travel.
