I do know it’s huge in Lego recipes.
No, not really. At least not popular main-line beverages. I even had AI do a search - and it listed several products, including Coke Zero as containing it - yet every detailed ingredient list I can find does NOT list erythritol in any of the beverages I checked.
Erythritol is more common in candies and other foods. It is a sugar alcohol, and as such tends to have a laxative effect when consumed in significant quantities.
This sweetener may very well present the claimed neurological issues, but I really wish the inflammatory (and generally false) claims to scare people were not part of it. It takes away credibility.
You are probably right. The list in Post #3 doesn’t show any sodas containing Erythritol.
I did not see diet coke on the list. My wife drinks diet coke.
It is starting to look like sugar substitutes like cyclamates are actually better for us than modern sugar substitutes.
Maybe on my next trip to Canada I will load up on cyclamates and smuggle them back in.
Sugar is bad. Sugar substitutes are far worse.
That’s a relief. I do drink Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi.
According to Coca-Cola's official website, aspartame is used in some of its products including Coke Zero Sugar, Diet Coke, Diet Coke Feisty Cherry, Diet Barq’s, Fanta Zero, Fresca, Gold Peak Diet Tea, Mello Yello Zero, Minute Maid Light, Pibb Zero, Seagrams Ginger Ale Zero Sugar, and Sprite Zero.
Erythritol is found naturally in some foods like wine, beer, and even cheese when they ferment.
However, it is not present in Coke Zero.
“My wife drinks diet coke.”
You know those diet drinks don’t work, right?
The only people you see drinking them are fat people.
“Lego recipes”
Is that a ‘thing’?
Never heard of Lego Recipes.
Unless it’s meant to be an inside joke.
Aspartame is just as bad if not worse.

Arrrgh! Spell checker!!! Keto recipes.
Aspartame isn’t exactly a great alternative either... but thanks for the follow-up.
I think that was what did in Euell Gibbons…
*Ever eat a Lego? Many parts are edible.
Ha-ha!
