This report presents the results of a survey conducted among 1,000 adults in the US in April 2021, which aimed to understand perceptions and use of dietary sweeteners. The survey found that when buying sweet foods and beverages, information from the ingredients list and Nutrition Facts label is more influential than claims such as "no artificial sweeteners" or "sugar-free." The report also found that most respondents were unfamiliar with rare sugar allulose, and that claims about the health effects of sugar/sweeteners were not highly influential in their purchasing decisions.
