I completely agree and don’t know how other people don’t notice the awful taste? Like the aftertaste is sooo gross and sticks around for awhile. Maybe it’s genetics and taste buds related. I also get bloated and headaches from things like sucralose.
On another note though I have actually found an artificial sweetener that doesn’t taste like ass and doesn’t have negative side effects like sucralose for me. Xylitol has been great and I can finally chew gum again that’s good for my teeth too.
I have given up on finding an artificial sweetener that doesn’t give me headaches. I’m kind of glad that they taste terrible because that way I can detect them before consuming enough that a headache is unavoidable.
Aspartame gave me terrible headaches. Then I became diabetic. Turns out by that time sucralose was more popular. It doesn’t give me headaches and it tastes fine. After so long of having sucralose, I can now tolerate aspartame. Still gross though.
I don’t care about the calories. Artificial sweeteners taste like plastic cancer, so it’s normal coke for me.
I’m kind on the same hill. I find that artificial sweetener leave a terrible taste in the mouth.
The worst is that some regular drinks are using sugar plus sweetener. I got this bad surprise now than once after taking the first sip.

I wonder if there’s a genetic competent to it like cilantro. I like aspartame, hate acesulfame potassium, and stevia is kinda meh.

Yeah. Those “reduced sugar” products. Even if they declare “only natural taste, no artificial flavorings”, they still might have sweeteners.
