Sweeteners

The fact that sugar is made in cheaper ways that act as a sweetener in almost every edible product out on the line and is equivalent or at times can be even more dangerous than a drug sol on the street, these new ways to make the sweeteners should be taken directly off and be banned for use. There are much safer sugars that we can use as an alternative such as glucose and lactose, but of course as…

How Honey is Made Everyone knows where honey comes from, but what many people are not aware of is the process of how it is made. Bees are responsible for making this thick, golden liquid using the nectar from flowers. Nectar is a sugary substance that bees extract from flowers using their long tongues. The nectar is then stored in what is called their extra stomach. In their stomach, the nectar mixes around with enzymes that transform the nectar into a substance that is able to last longer in…

displacement and direct measurement. An observation I made post-lab was that the diet coke was less dense than regular coke. This may be due to the fact that diet coke contains aspartame sweetener instead of high fructose corn syrup, which is found in regular coke. Additionally, the amount of aspartame sweetener in diet coke is 118 milligrams, whereas coke has 41 grams of high fructose corn syrup. In conclusion, diet coke is less dense that regular coke because it…

the time and how many licks a hummingbird took to consume certain substances and a few rejection responses from other solutions. The birds seemed to prefer the sucrose over the the water. They also seemed to like sucrose more than the artificial sweetener aspartame. The birds also rejected mixtures of the different solutions. This showed just how sensitive their receptor was and it was not just…

It was sought out to be the cause for a greater demand for natural resources, depending on the welfare of the business or family doing the…

free fructose and glucose molecules just like HFCS before the consumer takes a drink (White, 2008). Dr. White humorously sums this reality up in saying, "it is a sweet irony that purists who must have their sucrose-sweetened sodas end up drinking a sweetener composition more similar to HFCS and have been doing so since the…

maybe another one for the road. And another one for your afternoon break. You think: this is all good because diet = less to no sugar right? It may have less calories than your regular soda, sure, but what it does contain are artificial sweeteners. Artificial sweeteners actually pose a greater threat to your sugar consumption as it gives you the tendency to consume more with the thinking that it does not add to your calorie count. The aspartame in…
