Guest guest Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Bringing this piece of the whole to our attention. ATLANTA †" Coca-Cola (KO) plans to use a new calorie-free sweetener in some of its products in other countries and is hoping at some point to get FDA approval to use it in its products in the United States. The push to develop the natural sweetener, which is being called rebiana, is a partnership between Atlanta-based Coca-Cola and privately held Cargill, the Wayzata, Minn.-based agribusiness. http://www.usatoday.com/money/industries/food/2007-05-31- cokecargill_N.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know something is wrong when companies refuse to use something as simple and safe as stevia and go out of their way to develop chemicals that have to pass thru the FDA.
