    The main point of the article is to tell the story behind aspartame (and to point out its carcinogenic properties).

    Your choice. I'm not trying to sway anyone one way or another. Just putting the info out there. We all have our own minds to make up. I just find it far easier to make decisions for my own life and that of my family when I do the research so I'm well informed, and I enjoy sharing some of the info I come across. That is all. :)
