Firstly greetings from the UK!

Check out the huge UPI report - search on www.dorway.com for it - this huge website says it how it is - the ugly history, the politics etc and the brave doctors who are telling a different story to the Government - need I say more?

Oh and sucralose (and the rest of the sweeteners?) I don't think so. Now perhaps you guess the direction in which to go? Take a look at www.mercola.com and get some stevia instead (a NATURAL calorie free sweetener now that sounds better doesn't it!  Good luck - you'll find your hubbie will be helping you chuck out all the aspartamed products from your kitchen ... and yes, perhaps please tell ten people to tell ten people about all this.  Hope this helps.
