Sweet'n'low packets are very common, and so are an easy way for anyone to get saccharin just by reaching into a jar.

Interestingly though, here in Canada, Sweet'n'Low is sodium cyclamate. Saccharin continues to be banned here as a food additive because of that (now long believed to be flawed) 1970's research which linked it to cancer.

I had no idea that Sweet'n'Low is saccharin south of the border!

Further, when Equal introduced saccharin and sucralose packets a few years back, it produced them in exactly the same color as Sweet n Low and Splenda, meaning that consumers can continue to just reach for the pink packet or yellow packet to get what they expect. There was some question about trademark infringement, I recall from somewhere. So, yeah, in the US, "pink" means saccharin.

From the Wiki article linked above:

The current status of saccharin is that it is allowed in most countries, and countries like Canada have lifted their previous ban of it as a food additive
