Becki, I just checked the Perfect Pleasures box. It is made by Equal, but, surprisingly, the product uses Sugar Alcohol (12g), not Aspartame. Evidently, Sugar Alcohol is OK on Atkins. I didn't hear about Aspartame being not recommended under Atkins.
Maybe someone knows more about any limits on the use of Aspartame and Sugar Alcohol on the Atkins plan.

NOTE - I looked further on the box and it does contain some aspartame. It does have the warning: Phenylketonurics: Contains Phenylalanine.
