The elder Eisenstadt had earlier invented the sugar packet, but neglected to patent it, and artificial sweetener packets were an outgrowth(n.副产品) of that business. The two were the first to market and distribute the sugar substitute in powdered form. Their distribution company, Cumberland Packing Corporation, still controls the product. The name "Sweet'N Low" itself derives from an 1863 song by Joseph Barn by, which took both its title and lyrics from an Alfred Lord Tennyson poem, entitled The Princess: Sweet and Low. From the 1950's to the 1980's, Sweet'N Low held a virtual(adj.实际的) monopoly of the artificial sweetener market. Currently, according to Rich Cohen's book Sweet and Low, it holds the #3 position in said market, behind Equal sweetener and Splenda.低脂糖
