One can safely assume that anything chocolate less than 100 calories that is bigger than 1cm cube is full of fake something.

true...but for people like guendalina and my husband, who are allergic to aspartame.. its critical. and we often rely on the phenylkenoturics warning label to alert us.. and neotame doesnt require it!

many of my friends can have other artificial sweeteners, but not that one.. and they have started putting aspartame in NON diet labeled stuff. one assumes neotame will be too! (guen had a bad reaction one time from her normal non diet lemonade.. they had changed formulas to aspartame and sugar)

My biggest problem is I get some kind of reaction from every single artificial and non-nutritive sweetner. The least reaction is to sucralose which just makes me so nauseous i feel like i'm going to throw up, that is if i can manage to get an item with it past my lips because many things with sucralose taste so horribly nasty to me that I wouldn't eat/drink them anyway..

Thanks for the heads-up. I am allergic to all of the artificial sweeteners but I had never HEARD of Neotame, and since I have a clear track record with aspartame, I'm sure it will affect me negatively.

nod... i posted about it ages ago when it first got approved *without* the wrning label.. for people allergic/reactive to all artificials its just "one more" but to people with specific issues with aspartame, who tend to count on the "phenylkenouturics warning" this is sneaky...
pass it on

Neotame alert! - chemical cousin to Aspartame
