People trying to reduce sugar and calories in their diets turn to artificial sweeteners or other sugar substitutes. Artificial sweeteners and other sugar substitutes are found in a variety of foods and beverages marketed as sugar-free or dietetic, including soft drinks and baked goods.
Artificial sweeteners and other sugar substitutes are sweeteners used in place of regular table sugar (sucrose).
