The same reasons my pumpkin pies don't last long after they're made. Additives make producing food goods cheaper to make, last longer and taste fresher. A plant in WA can make some cakes and ship them to NY and they taste and look fresh as the day they were made.

I've also heard some bad things about splenda. My rule of thumb is stick to the stuff thats been around for hundreds of years. Not a few. Like I said, suger and salt on it's own is just fine. At least that's how I feel about it.
