    Too Pricey

    Too Expensive. Target needs to return to carrying their store brand of Aspartame. Diabetics and individuals trying to reduce their calorie intake find store branded Aspartame is equivalent across brands.

    We’ve been using Equal for years. Suddenly the packets are noticeably less sweet. We are very disappointed. I would have thought bad box or bad batch, but the feedback is uniform; this is a product formulation change. This was a remarkably bad idea, Equal.

    I thought I purchased a bad batch. Not sweet at all. What gives? I used this product every day and had the perfect sweetness for my coffee. This morning I tasted my coffee and thought I forgot the Equal. So I added more. Still not nearly as sweet as before.

    I also have been using Equal for a number of years and have noticed that the sweetness is definitely NOT the way it used to be. I thought it was me, but now see that others feel the same way. I think the original one had only aspartame, not dextrose with maltodextrin. Could be wrong but it is not the same.

    The boxes with the new logo are less sweet ! I think they also contain less powder than before. I had a older box in the office and the difference is impressive. Is this a trick to use more and sell more?????

    We have been using Equal for years. However, we just opened a new box (expiration date 01/29/2024) and it is like NOTHING. Zero sweetness. The reviews here are from 2 years ago with complaints about not being AS sweet and needing to use more. The box we have now has no sweetness. What the heck?

    So Many Empty Packets

    Just opened a new box of Equal packets to find many either empty or almost empty. I haven’t investigated the whole box yet, but I don’t think this will go well. In fairness, I have been using Equal for many years, and this is a first.

    Had a stomach stalking surgery many years ago and have managed to keep the weight off. Had to cut a lot out of my diet which contributed to the weight gain including my previous sugar intake. Thanks to Equal it really helped me. Yes I noticed as other reviews said the packets are less sweet. But for me, I don't want to trick my body into getting used to the thing that weighed me down. I had to adjust to the less sugar tatse. Thanks Equal!

    I have been using equal for years and it’s been great. However for the past couple of months I have found that the strength of each packet hasn’t been the same. It now takes 2 packets to get the same sweetness. It is almost like the formula has changed or something. I think I’m going to switch to the yellow packets. They seem to be the same.

    Empty packets

    Many packets in the box were empty. Also I agree with other reviewers that product is not as sweet as it was before. I feel like the formula was changed. Also the packets that do have product in them are not as full as the were previously. I feel like equal is trying to sell more by product by reducing the amount put in the packets. Like others I may have to switch to another sweetner.
