Is Equal Kosher and Kosher for Passover?

 Is Equal certified to be used during Passover?

 Equal – including Equal Spoonful, Equal Granular, Equal Tablets and the ubiquitous packets – is kosher. But as its leading ingredient, aspartame, is derived from corn, it is not kosher for Passover.

None of this information is to be found on Equal's Web site, however, – you have to speak with Anita, and it is not that easy to find her customer service phone number on the Web site, either. (Once you reach her, though, she's charming…).
