Fructose Sees Growth as Sugar and Saccharin Rival
Hoffmann La Roche pitches crystalline fructose as a low calorie alternative amid warnings on saccharin and concerns over aspartame. A planned $25 million Savanna Indiana plant will, with Xyrofin Ltd., produce 10,000 tons annually by late 1980. Fructose offers about four calories per gram and double sweetness, reducing required amounts. Saccharin, cyclamate, and aspartame face scrutiny and regulatory changes.
