The search for sweetness

Abstract

In the second half of 1974, sugar became a precious commodity. Domestic and commercial stockpiling increased the weekly sales by 1800 tons compared with sales in 1973. With rising prices and the possible scarcity of sugar in the future, there is renewed interest in artificial sugar substitutes, the so‐called synthetic sweeteners.
