New research shows that the popular sweetener erythritol, often recommended for people with obesity and diabetes, comes with health risks of its own.

        Splenda the brand certainly sells erythritol; it’s not their main product

        Edit: Here’s the one from my cupboard

          Ingredients:

          “Maltodextrin, Monk Fruit Extract”

          No mention of erythritol.

          https://www.splenda.com/product/splenda-monk-fruit-sweetener-pouch/

          Not all monk fruit sweeteners contain erythritol.

              You’d think they’d list that on their website.
