Btw, I got the post off yahoo. The only thing that was mine was "what are your thoughts?" lol
When you quote other people, it is proper to use quotation marks and attribute the original source.
It's also not proper to call people "dumbass" or "*kitten*." Consider this thread your Introduction To Talking To Other People With Some Degree Of Humanity.0 -

Artificial sweeteners have become a necessity for many people to make their food palatable. They need sweetness, but they don’t want the calories. Artificial sweeteners mean they can have their cake and eat it too. But don’t tell people it’s bad for them. They actually already know this, but they don’t care. Sugar is addicting, and like most addictions, people don’t want pleasure to be taken from them. What are your thoughts??
My thoughts are that your OP may be the dumbest thing that I have read all day. Possibly all week. I will let you know on Saturday.0 -
I've already written an article with my thoughts http://cdnutritionandfitness.com/aspartame-is-the-devil/
I get people telling me all the time that I should stop drinking my diet drinks. I can't even be bothered arguing anymore. At least when I die of cancer, I will be lean0 -
water's not man made
You come in to decry the use of artificial sweeteners, but then argue that water's not man made. Water, artificial sweeteners, and every other thing we put in our mouths are chemicals, because they have a chemical makeup. If you don't want to eat artificial sweeteners, then don't.
Troll much?
Nobody twisting your arm to respond. You don't like the post feel free to find one more suited to you.0 -

BTW love the new pic!0 -

Food can be palatable without sweetening it and there are all kinds of natural sweeteners available to meet any sweetening need so there is no real need for artificial sweeteners. At least we know how the body responds to natural sweeteners.0 -
LOL
Anyhow, in...

I think it's none of my damn business what other people put in their food, and if the thought even enters my head to tell someone else a food is bad for them or lecture them on eating habits in general then it is probably time to re-evaluate my priorities and get a hobby.0

Don't get what the big deal is anyway? Opinions vary, a lot of people getting all pissy for what? Cause somebody didn't share their opinion?

You mean we can't go with "I reject your reality and substitute my own?"

Indeed, indeed. No one got pissy, except maybe you, who started calling people names.0 -
