I can taste all of the artificial sweeteners. My spouse uses them constantly and they taste sideways to me. My partner doesn’t taste much of a difference so If we ever get drinks mixed up I’m the poison tester.
The only way to get them to taste fine enough is by using a mixture of a few different ones. I’m sure my experience is similar to people who have the cilantro soap thing.
I think high fructose corn syrup taste like literal poison. I can taste it in anything and everything it’s in. Funny thing though. Your tastebuds acclimate, and you get used to flavors (either HFCS or Aspartame). I still struggle with stevia, sometimes, but it’s far easier to look past than high fructose corn syrup.
Artificial sweetners do taste “off” to me, but tastebuds can acclimate to it. The rest of my digestive system? Not so much. Let’s just say there is a reason it is pronounced ASS-partame.
My partner has been doing low carb for around 5 years now. I’m assuming it takes longer? I usually try everything they make. From ice cream to syrups to cakes.
Real talk though, I love xanthan gum. I know it’s garbage.
Yeah. I don’t get it either. Artificial sweetners are way more effective at stimulating your tastebuds than sugar for the calories.
Why would anyone switch to an inferior product which ruins your health if they have the option not to??

It tastes like pesticides to me.
