The use of Saccharin as an economic sweetening agent in thirty or more food products is to be abandoned. Saccharin has been used to sweeten canned corn, peas and potatoes, sarsaparilla, Cream Soda, and other soft beverages champagne and liquors. Its use will be unlawful after July 1,1911. Saccharin has a chemical name, benzoic sulfinide. It is extensively used in households, to sweeten the food of diabetic subjects, an extremely small tablet being equal in sweetness to a large lump of sugar when used in coffee, tea or cocoa. Pure saccharin ia 550 times as sweet as sugar. A sweet taste may be imparted to 70,000 parts of water.— Albert H. Worth B. S., In Scientic American May 20th.
