SomerSweet™ : contains, Oligofructose, Inulin, Fructose, Sprouted Mung Bean Extract, Acesulfame K .... Yummmmm... 8^)<<<<<<<

Thanks, yechhh. The very idea of "mung bean" leaves me cold. But I wonder if this would be considered "better" than sugar for the body.

I don't know about that, but I can tell you my personal opinion is to err on the side of natural substances, over chemicals. That said, even sugar is heavily processed.. so go figure.. :)

OligoFructose is also known as Isomaltulose, it is a polyol derived from Sucrose in a process that reduces it's caloric content dramatically, The Inulin is usually added to counter the negative heat of Solution (cooling effect) of the Isomaltulose.
