It only bothers me if it really causes those problems in humans.

My Mom was one of the ones that got breast cancer from cyclamates (sp?) back when she was just 31....my Aunt had 8 breast tumors and at age 13 I had a breast tumor... only my Moms was cancerous, but we all lived on the Diet rite back then that was sweetened with it... so I guess I am a little leery of artificial sweeteners in the first place....it tasted good like Splenda does and we had several a day, every day.... it was banned back then and none of us ever had any repeat tumors after stopping the cyclamates.

I want Splenda to be a safe artificial sweetener, but I don't know if any will prove to be, other than stevia.

Do you know if stevia is actually good?....I might give it a try.
