hanz0:Very well done. These annoy me much less than the default smilies we've got right now.
Synthetic flavour enhancers.
PS. all food comes from the sun
well yes food comes from the sun LIGHT..it GROWS on earth :d]

Theyre manufactured in a laboratory. Sucralose/Trichlorosucrose is 1,6-Dichloro-1,6-dideoxy-β-D-fructofuranosyl-4-chloro-4-deoxy-α-D-galactopyranoside.

It's made from the selective chlorination of sucrose (comes from sugarcane etc), but you have a pretty limited understanding of chemistry if you think there is any sucrose in trichlorosucrose ;).


Also, ITT: pedantic semantics.

I suggest you move on.

You look like an intelligent fellow, i can tell from your good command of the english language and insightful ideas and from having seen quite a few- oh wait.
wihch are?...chemicals right?.../gases

even if there not chemicals there found on earth wich proves my point further

wich means it comes from earth and my point is right (well right compared to that)

Trichlorosucrose cannot be found in nature.

Proof?Also this Trichlorosucrose doesn't have sucrose?I would have though that it was made of 3 molecules of sucrose if you hadn't made that point lul.Not everyone is doing chemistry major,don't go overboard :/

oh ok..where does it come from then ?

I just gave chemical justification.

People wouldn't manufacture it in a lab if it was readily available in nature.

Here's a spoiler: you can't find alluminium in nature either *GASP*

Sucrose



Sucralose/Trichlorosucrose
