Aspartame is approximately 200 times sweeter than regular table sugar (sucrose). This intense sweetening power means that only a very small amount is needed to achieve the same level of sweetness, making it a popular low-calorie alternative for many foods and beverages. Its discovery in 1965 revolutionized the food industry, allowing for the creation of numerous 'diet' and 'sugar-free' products.
