Re: Nutrasweet: My mother is a diabetic and instead of using sugar or nutrasweet, she uses a "natural" substitute called Stevia Rebaudiana. It can be found at most health food stores. It's hypoallergenic and contains no sugar, salt, yeast, wheat, corn, soy, milk, preservatives, or additives. We just discovered this about 2 months ago ourselves. It's considered safe and without side effects. Hope this is of some help for those wanting to avoid aspartame and/or nutrasweet. Have a great day!
