Coke had Coca-Cola Life which was roughly half sugar and half Stevia, and I remember somewhat liking it. They discontinued it due to low sales. It surprises me

It surprises me nobody has developed a sugar substitute yet that actually tastes like sugar with no aftertaste. I know nothing about chemical/food engineering but it must be a tough nut to crack.
- rowanG077 4y agoThe problem is generally that good sugar substitutes are laxatives. There is even an enantiomer of glucose. Which chemically behaves almost like normal sugar. It tastes exactly the same. But since your body can't break it down like normal sugar it's a laxative. I think this is the reason why all sugar substitutes we actually use are MUCH stronger then normal sugar.
