When did they start adding sucralose to *non-diet* drinks? Had a Brisk iced tea for the first time in a while and then noticed the calories were way too low and they have sucralose poison in the ingredients, which explains all the diarrhea. Fuck fat people for ruining regular iced tea with undigestible weight loss powder.

How do you think an artificial sweetener tastes sweet without adding calories? It scrapes through your intestines undigested:

I don't know when, but it's been common for a while now for processed foods to add some artificial sweeteners so that they can get by with using less sugar or sugar equivalents. They will also use multiple types of sugar equivalents so that they don't have to put any one of them higher on the ingredient list.
for example, someone might look at a list that says:
>sugar, strawberries, pectin
and reject that for being "too much sugar", while
>strawberries, sugar, corn syrup, pectin
appears to have less sugar at first glance but in reality may have just as much or more.

>Fuck fat people for ruining regular iced tea
They didn't ruin regular iced tea. you make that yourself with tea leaves, water, and ice cubes. what they ruined was overpriced convenience brand iced tea.

Regular as in non-diet. You used to be able to differentiate between drinks with artificial non-nutrative sweeteners and drinks without them because they used the former in drinks labeled "diet," where they belong. Putting them in non-diet drinks doesn't make any sense.

Diet beverages use aspartame or ace-k, sucralose is derived from sugar.

Non-diet drinks used to only have cane sugar or corn syrup. Sucralose is an artificial sweetener, not a real sugar.

The fuck? I drank 2 1-liter bottles of brisk every day back in high school and I never got sick from it.

No, sucralose is in diet drinks and is most definitely a non-nutritive sweetener too.

>The American Heart Association labels low-calorie sweeteners, artificial sweeteners, and noncaloric sweeteners as non-nutritive sweeteners (NNSs), since they offer no nutritional benefits such as vitamins and minerals. They may be low in calories or have no calories, depending upon the brand.

>Acesulfame-K (Sweet One®)
>Neotame
>Saccharin (Sweet’N Low®)
>Sucralose (Splenda®)

>Sucralose is an artificial sweetener and sugar substitute. The majority of ingested sucralose is not broken down by the body, so it is noncaloric.

Depending on when you went to high school the ingredients weren't necessarily the same. And are you seriously not able to understand the concept of different people having different reactions to food and chemicals? Nonfatal / minor side effects are almost never anywhere close to present in 100% of people or animals studied.

I checked out of curiosity just now and there's acesulfame in my Lipton's green tea. That is weird. They should keep diet stuff in diet drinks IMO. I know those sweetening agents screw with IBS people.

[Anonymous No.12223383]

For me, it's Erythritol, the best non-sugar sweetener.

BRO its not that hard. there are two kinds of "diet" tea.

DIET iced tea (sweet tea with artificial flavor)
UNSWEETENED ice tea, literally what you are looking for

I don't think you understood what you read here.
OP wants sugar / corn syrup, not artificial sweeteners. Brisk started dishonestly putting artificial sweeteners in drinks NOT labeled as "diet."

I'm OP and I'm 32 years old, 6'1, and 140lb. It's safe for me to have sugar in an iced tea for fuck's sake. That has nothing to do with the topic of artificial sweeteners getting slipped into drinks that aren't even "diet."

Brisk isn't even tea bro, it's fuckin sugar water. If you want genuine tea get Milo's from the supermarket. Otherwise fuck off and stop being retarded about the American methods of caffeine absorption.

Maybe you think IBS is made up, but non-nutritive sweeteners like that promote colon and liver inflammation too. I don't trust anything with zero or near-zero calories. That feature tends to be another way of saying you're drinking sugar flavored plastic.

>Consuming too much of any artificial sweetener may cause diarrhea, bloating, gas, or have a laxative effect in some people.
https://goaskalice.columbia.edu/answered-questions/sucralose-splenda
>Sucralose and other artificial sweeteners are notorious for causing laxative effects — bloating, diarrhea, gas — in some snackers. This might be because the bacteria in our gut metabolize certain components of Splenda® and produce a fun byproduct: nitrogen gas. Also, the excess of "stuff" sitting in the gut causes osmosis to kick in, bringing water into the colon, potentially causing some unpleasant diarrhea.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5522834/
>Enrichment of bacterial pro-inflammatory genes and disruption in fecal metabolites suggest that 6-month sucralose consumption at the human acceptable daily intake (ADI) may increase the risk of developing tissue inflammation by disrupting the gut microbiota, which is supported by elevated pro-inflammatory gene expression in the liver of sucralose-treated mice. Our results highlight the role of sucralose-gut microbiome interaction in regulating host health-related processes, particularly chronic inflammation.
