WHO decision on aspartame could hurt diet soda sales or lead to new drink formulas
July 17, 2023

Aspartame is commonly used as a sweetener in popular zero-sugar sodas like Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi. The classification raises concerns among consumers, especially higher-income individuals who are more likely to consume diet sodas, and may lead to companies like Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Keurig Dr Pepper considering alternative sweeteners in their products.
