Tab (soft drink)
TaB is a diet cola. It was the first
diet soft drink brand produced by the
Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced in
1963 and has been reformulated several times. It was initially sweetened with
cyclamate. After the
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a ban on cyclamate in
1969,
saccharin was used. In 1977, the FDA moved to ban saccharin. The ban proposal was rejected by the
U.S. Congress, but it did require that all products containing saccharin carry a warning label that saccharin may cause
cancer. In the year 2000, the U.S. government lifted this requirement. A formula revision in 1984 blended saccharin with a small amount of
aspartame; this is the formula that is currently marketed in North America. TaB sales have been dwarfed by those of
Diet Coke, though enough people still prefer TaB to keep it in production.
