@RustyCrab @meso @sleepingnevi @adachi There's not much evidence that sugar alternatives are actually unhealthy, it's mostly just Internet schizos, and people don't know where those alternatives come from, so they're distrustful by default.

People think they're synthesized in a lab or something, when it's just plants other than corn and sugar cane that aren't as Calorically dense.

It's not that it's a miracle substance, it's just that sugar is particularly bad unless it's scarce.
