    Artificial sugar is still sugar.

    Because it contains sucrose, fructose or glucose? Because it metabolises the same and matches the glycemic index of sugar?

    Because those are all wrong. What’s your criteria?

      In this example a sugar is something that is sweet.

      Another example is artificial flavours still being a flavour.

      Or like artificial light being in fact light.
