question archive What is the molecular explanation for why the sweetener Splenda is perceived by the human tongue as being sweet? Splenda crystals are white, just like sucrose crystals Splenda occurs in nature along with sucrose; humans evolved to sense both Splenda molecules are similar in to sucrose and can bind the sucrose receptor Splenda molecules block sour receptors so we sense a sweet aftertaste Splenda molecules have equal atoms and bonds to sucrose molecules
