The question is implied. It's a statement that leads the listener to
believe that an answer should be given. ( This is an unfortunate
habit of speech that you have.) You may not think you are asking for
help, but you are. You need to change the way you express yourself.
You said " I wish there was a sweetener I could use. So far I
haven't found
one. " The implied question is, does anyone know of a sweetener that
I could use. Watch your sentence construction and you won't be
bothered by unwanted help.
