Sorry - I wouldn't buy them. I just eat regular chutney eg I'll put a bit in my cheese sandwich, or have some mango chutney with a curry. I find the amount eaten is small so I dont worry about them. In the same way, I have a small amount of regular jam on my toast if I want it.
I'm not a fan of specialist diabetic products in general (not having a go at your idea - just a general statement).
Also, I personally would rather have a little bit of sugar than any artificial sweetener. This is mainly because I prefer natural over artificial, but also because I find they tend to taste weird.
IF chutneys are accompanying a carb meal eg curry and rice, or cheese and pickle sandwich, then I'm far more concerned about the rice and bread carb content than the minuscule amount from any condiments.
I think people are more interested in natural whole food than artificial sugar free ones. Just my personal opinion : )
