It seems aspartame is made from CARP

[the_hawk*]

This scientific jargon obfuscates (perhaps deliberately) a truly disturbing process:

1.) 'Cloned microorganisms' (which the patent later reveals to be genetically modified E. coli) are cultivated in tanks whose environments are tailored to help them thrive.

2.) The well-fed E. coli cultures defecate the proteins that contain the aspartic acid-phenylalanine amino acid segment needed to make aspartame.

Hang on mate. You know very well that when a subject is created and you place the title in, the system automatically searches subject history and brings up other threads for consideration. This is to stop duplicates! This thread had only about 5 or 6 replies on it, two of them was from members who are  active contributors to this forum.

I'm just making use of a low reply thread which the system here suggests I do!

But isn't eBay mainstream? Why would you take their suggestions as gospel?

Oh dear. I think I need a whiskey now.

Why don't you just discuss the topic? Or not, as you see fit?

Why do you feel the need to constantly question and critiscise other poster's choice of topic.

The subject matter was of interest then, and still is. 

It is still being used as a sweetener, despite health concerns being raised over it's use:

"Alleged dangers

Medical experts, including Dr John Olney, a leading researcher into neuropsychopharmacology has raised serious concerns about neurotoxic effects of aspartame.

Aspartame has also been linked with the development or aggravation of a number of health conditions including:

• diabetes mellitus
• convulsions
• headaches
• depression
• psychiatric states
• hyperthyroidism
• hypertension
• arthritis

Aspartame has also been linked with the development of grand mal seizures and brain cancers in mammals such as rats and monkeys. [98]

Official reviews carried out by the US’ Food and Drug Administration and the European Food Safety Authority report that there is no consistent evidence of harm in humans.

Despite being declared safe, a number of leading academics have still expressed doubts over the safety of the sweetener.

and, Aspartame is the sweetener used in Diet Coke.  Anecdotal evidence from the USA over the last 4 years has shown it can cause:

- delusions of grandeur

- a propensity to exaggerate 

- persistent lying

- excessive tweeting in the wee small hours

- paranoia leading to claims of election fraud

- mistrust of mainstream media

- seriously bad public displays of dance moves to YMCA

- inciting insurrection

- cheating at golf

- excessive use of spray-tan

- orange skin colouring

among other things

Donald Trump drinks Diet Coke?   What do you know.....I would never have guessed.

[zanadoo_56]

Another sweetener - Sorbitol - is no better.

It is also used as a laxative......and for anyone who has sorbitol intolerance - it works.

I can't imagine anyone wanting to have this added to their diet icyfroth. This is nothing but a chemical.

People seriously need to read the fine print on the back of the food packaging.
