The probability of it doing anything really bad to you is very very very low. Its just as stupid as the people saying Canned goods can cause cancer...

I wouldn't go as far as saying its good for you, but its a good sugar substitute if your trying to limit your sugar intake.

I took food safety classes at sait as part of my program and this issue actually came up. For aspartame to be hardful for you you'd have to consume a bulk load everyday for it to start becoming harmful to you. As long as you don't drink 20 coke zero everyday, I think you're gonna be ok.

^^ Ya i heard something like that ,, and its something like 99.99 percent of people are completely unbothered by it.

And a shit load of anything can be potentionally bad for you.

I voted "bad" due to the fact that it tastes shit-awful.

I know someone that got rashes from it, but that's just an allergic reaction. There's such a small amount of it in a drink, I think it's fine.

I put two little bags in my coffee every morning. Haven't noticed anything yet.

"Aspartame contains METHANOL, a serious metabolic poison. Your body converts it to formaldehyde (embalming fluid) and formic acid (ant sting poison) both of which attack your central nervous system and every organ of your body."

Well isn't that re-assuring. I wonder what evidence they have to back that up.
