I hate fake food almost as much as I hate fake news. Why don’t you learn to enjoy food without fake sweeteners and then just enjoy a little real food made with real sugar. Even if you are diabetic, unless you are extremely brittle, you can plan your diet accordingly.

God never intended for us to eat fake food, it can’t be good for us!

Erythritol is my favorite. Monk fruit is very sweet. They say xylitol is laxative like and stevia is the bitter tasting one. I use a lot of erythritol in baking.

Allulose, acesulfame potassium, and Monk Fruit Extract.

I prefer acesulfame potassium and Allulose between those.

Canada has or had another one ten years ago, but I couldn’t find it. It tasted very good.

We use stevia and drink Zevia’s rather than diet sodas. They are carbonated drinks made with stevia.

Also, we’ve tried to cut out grains and sugars, and eat fresh. This has helped cut out inflammation especially for my husband and his arthritic symptoms are clearing up.

Aspartame has long been off my list for decades.
Saccharin was off my list long before Aspartame has been.
Stevia has a bad taste, imo.
Agave is too high in carbs.
Spenda and its generic store brand is my choice.
Pancake syrup and honey made with Splenda are good.
Black Strap Molasses is ok when you need just a spoonful of something-something when baking and cooking family sized dishes.

Just this week, I’ve tried to give up sweeteners and am doing without any in my coffee. Have done without any in iced tea for years but somehow want it in hot tea.

Type II diabetic & try to avoid even the substitutes. Diet Coke/Pepsi with an occasional subway is about it. I drink a lot of soda stream carbonated water without flavoring.

Life can be lived without sugar, maple syrup, honey, or molasses. You need to take a stand though, there is no free ride regardless of the marketing promises.

After years I can now buy treats for my wife & abstain myself. It just took a long time.

It not in Canada anymore, but when it wasn’t combined with saccharin, it tasted quite good:

Stevia is more like a spice but is not spicy, it is very sweet.

Be careful with xylitol, it won’t hurt you but it can kill your dog.

Stevia extract. Stevia leaves also are good if you miss your own herbal teas.

You can also grow your own plants: https://www.amazon.com/Outsidepride-Stevia-Sweetleaf-Plant-Seeds/dp/B006RV7GVM/

I like sugar and I put it in my tea.

I rarely drink soda and never diet. Except for several times a year I drink one from the few companies that use real sugar and not corn syrup.

I’d rather limit sugar intake to a reasonable level than to consume any of the sugar substitutes.
