Sweeteners

[dakidski]

Drink fresh, good coffee and you won't need any sweeteners.

It's not a bad option really. I don't mind black coffee.

I've really cut down on soda all together...I typically drink water and coffee now. I just use regular sugar in my coffee, sweeteners just seem so unnatural to me.

Has there ever been any testing done, not sponsored by the maker OR the psycho anti-chemical people that shows any of this is actually dangerous?

I know some people have issuses with aspertame, my mom does for example, but how is it any different from a simple food allergy?

Isn't someone here a chemist who works in the food industry? Or is that another site I am thinking of..

It lists right on the packages of Nutrasweet and shit that it is a carcinogen. Not exactly encouraging imo.

I doubt you will have any significant health effects from drinking diet coke. Don't be a wimp.

[K3V]

It tastes like shit.

[Grave]

Coke Zero's pretty good.

Anything with artificial sweeteners have this weird aftertaste that I just can't get used to.

[Doc Holliday]

I got somewhat addicted to diet-coke, it's hard to say why, but I partly blame aspartame. I'm a coffee drinker, will lemon work in that?

BAh! Coffee is for barbarians! Drink tea you fucking Norseman!

Doc H: Englishmen drink tea... Denmark was occupied, shortly after Hitler cut off the south-american coffee traderoutes. Without coffee, we had no willpower and lost all hope. That's how addicted we are.

Gohron: I got this odd feeling about sweeteners. My diet-coke addiction was not normal.

Wildcat: There are plenty of websites warning against aspartame... Also a few tinfoil-hat genre movies on youtube. I believe...

K3V: carcinogen? whats that? sounds healthy...
