Carrelame

Carrelame is an extremely high potency artificial sweetener of the guanidine class, closely related to lugduname. While Carrelame is roughly 160,000x as sweet as sucrose, lugduname is still somewhat sweeter.[1] Like other members of this class, it has not been approved for use in food due to unknown long term toxicity, although it appears safe in pigs.[2]
