Russia provides an excellent example as a big country with big needs-millions of potential consumers eager for goods and services denied them under communism.

Saccharin he called it, after sakcharon, the Greek word for sugar. He further learned that it passed through the body unchanged and was thus a safe artificial sweetener for diabetics.
