OT- The NutraSweet thing?
I wanted to start this in a new thread because I feared it would get
lost in the thread of the original post.
Here's a question a scientist would ask: did we as a nation see a spike
in cancers, especially in cancers of a certain type, after the
introduction of NutraSweet?
Think about it---people are consuming literally tons of the stuff and
have been since it replaced saccharin. If it were carcinogenic to any
appreciable degree then we as a nation would have seen a huge spike on
cancer deaths. And there's been time to see this result even if it were
only visible in the long-term. Hasn't NutraSweet been on the market for
at least 20 years?
Do we have the cancer data to support saying it's bad?
