I don't hold much stock in the conspiracy and scare stories circulating the web about aspertame. Some of them are just plain silly, all are based on no evidence at all.

You will also find info saying Splenda causes all sorts of evil things too.

I am sure if you ate a hundred pounds of anything every day for 20 years you will get sick, but in normal use, there is no evidence at all that these substances are any worse for you then oatmeal, meat, nuts, etc...
