A wealthy, 89-year-old artificial sweetener magnate who made Sweet’N Low a household name has committed suicide by jumping from his Park Avenue apartment building, law enforcement sources told The Post.
Donald Tober, CEO and co-owner of the New York-based 1,400-employee Sugar Foods, leapt to his death just after 5 a.m. Friday, and was found in the courtyard of the luxury Upper East Side building between 65th and 66th streets, the sources said.
He was struggling with Parkinson’s disease, the sources said.

“This is how I will please the media.”
Hey, they were “White”!
Yep....sounds suspicious.
coulda been an accident too- if he was unsteady- not sure how high the wall on the deck banister was if that is where he fell from?
The article i don’t think mentioned a suicide note
It is sad.
doesn’t actually say where he fell or leapt from- but having parkinsons, he might not have been very steady on feet perhaps? But again, article didn’t mention if there was a balcony or not
Monk fruit is not really a “fake sugar”. However if you overuse it, it can have some really nasty side effects. Nothing painful, just embarrassing.
FWIW, I drink dark roast coffee, Black, no sweetener and no cream.
Yup.. me too.. instant headache the first time I had aspertane.. Probably a good thing since it made me stop drinking diet soda.
I wasn’t talking about Mon Fruit, Stevia, etc. I meant the artificial ones.
New York is where I'd rather die. I get allergic smelling hay. I just adore a penthouse view. Dah-ling I love you but give me Park Avenue.
I love that old show. I especially like Arnold Zippel, the pig star on Green Acres.
I’d wait for the good Lord to call me home.
I hate stevia. Yeah, it’s “natural” but it still “leaves“ an aspartame aftertaste.
Monk fruit is genuinely sweet like sugar. But I still use it sparingly.
I discovered an amazing diet drink. It’s called water.
If you order it at a restaurant, the waitress will assume you’re a cheapskate and you’re going to leave a little tip. I use the money I save from not buying a soda or ice tea and add it to the tip.
MeTV westerns are on in my house all afternoon.. My dog loves the horsies.
gotta love the it crowd
And his interesting encounters with Jeff Epstein and his friends will now never reach the ears of the public, right?
I really shouldn’t say this bit I just can’t help it.
Among the sweetener magnates, Donald Tober had no Equal.
I found I had an allergic reaction to aspartame. I don’t like any artificial sweeteners.
I’ve also found I do better with my weight now that I’ve cut out soda and its high-fructose corn syrup, and just drink water.
You’re terrible, Lol!
jumped from Park Avenue building....sounds like he had enough....RIP.
