minus-squareVespair@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·13 hours agoI do not agree with this, I’m sorry. I think while yes sweet similar to sugar, it has a slightly menthol and aggressively metallic taste. That being said, I am a supertaster unfortunately, so that may be contributing to my difficulty with fake sugars.
minus-squareblujan@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 hours agoYeah this is my experience, luckily I love the menthol and metallic taste in erythritol while I hate all other sweeteners (except sugar)
minus-squareTimeNaan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 hours agoFair enough, I’m definitely not a supertaster, so maybe that’s why I can’t taste it.
minus-squaretheTarrasque@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·20 hours agoErythritol has a cold minty aftertaste for me, but a 50:50 mix with stevia eliminates that taste.
