>Why are you so angry and condescending in your posts?
I am angry and condescending towards those who have promoted Aspartame
who know the facts, who know the science, and who know the
consequences; yet who have LIED and SPINNED it away or simply turned
away their heads in silence.
Given that, one would think that I'd have every right to be angry and
condescending towards them.

So Julianne, let me understand you - you're saying it's not relevant
to educate people looking for help in making decisions regarding
consumption of, or who are simply interested in, certain artificial
sweetners. Or are you implying that discussion of artificial
sweetners has no place in discussion of diet.
>and let people make their own decisions?
The facts are plain for anyone to see, Julianne. Aspartame, the
composition of which is well-documented, and how it is processed upon
consumption being well-documented, was "studied" in a "major" project
which clearly involved a crucial conflict of interest. I think that
is quite important in consideration of the facts behind a major
artificial sweetner.
Unless, perhaps, you happen to be the CEO of Monsanto.

If the facts are plain to see then why promote them with hateful comments
like 'Can you say, "Conflict of interest" boys and girls? I knew you
could'? I am neither a boy or a girl and neither are most of the regulars
here. I think I speak for us all when I say that none of us have any desire
that you should eat aspertame.
But when the conflict of interest question comes up, it always gets me
thinking...... Suppose I designed a super duper new food product or drug
and wanted it to be marketed. Would it be someone else's responsibility to
fund the studies? If so, whose responsibility would it be?
