ASaccharin is 650 times sweeter than sugar
BAlitame is 2000 times sweeter than sugar
CSucralose is 160 times sweeter than sugar
DAspartam is 550 times sweeter than sugar
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Alitame is 2000 times sweeter than sugar
**Known relative sweetness values are:** saccharin about $550$ times, alitame about $2000$ times, sucralose about $600$ times, and aspartame about $200$ times sweeter than sucrose. Therefore only the statement about alitame matches correctly. After checking all four options, the correct choice is $\text{B}$.
