Acesulfame Potassium
Sucralose
Neotame
these are artificial sweeteners. not made from sugar.
sucralose (splenda) is an artificial sweetner. a non-natural, manufactured sweetener not made from real sugar.
"The sweetness of Splenda derives from a chlorocarbon chemical that contains three atoms of chlorine in every one of its molecules. The manufacturer of this chlorinated compound named it sucralose. The improper use of “ose” in the name creates the illusion that sucralose is natural like sucrose which is the precise name for table sugar."
SUCROSE and SUCRALOSE are NOT the same thing.
Ace K is a sweetener that is commonly mixed with other artificial sweeteners. this is because sucralose covers the aftertaste of Ace K. and Ace K covers the aftertaste of Sucralose.
Neotame is an artificial sweetener made by NutraSweet. It is chemically similar to the popular artificial sweetener aspartame, but is used at vastly lower levels and is much more stable.
All of the sweeteners in this blog are listed as ingredients of regular Tang. not diet tang but regular. No wonder my head has hurt for 3 days...

interesting. i didn't know about the aceK being a faker. rather, i didn't even know it was a sweetener at all!
tang does not give me a headache, though.
maybe next time try orange koolaid with sugar. all 1 cup of it. :)
This is why I don't buy Tang anymore. Though it is our favorite!
