sucralose
Chlorinated sugar derivative
Sucralose is an artificial sweetener derived from sugar but chemically altered to pass through the body without being metabolized, making it calorie-free.
It's about 600 times sweeter than sugar and stable at high temperatures, so it works in baking.
Sold under the brand name Splenda, it appears in diet sodas, sugar-free products, and those yellow packets at coffee shops.
