As an aside, what makes you call Coke Zero "poisonous"? I've never read anything that convinces me aspartame has significant negative health effects, in fact, "the most recent medical review on the subject concluded that 'the weight of existing scientific evidence indicates that aspartame is safe at current levels of consumption as a non-nutritive sweetener.'"

- Tichy 17y agoI don't really have in depth knowledge of Aspartame. Sometimes you hear this, sometimes you hear that... In any case I can't think of any compelling reason for consuming it? All in all it seems more likely that it is poisonous than not - it certainly falls into the "heavily processed food" category, they have to add other chemicals to make it stable etc? I know lots of people drink it every day - I admit "poisonous" puts it a bit provocatively. Edit: just looked it on on Wikipedia, this seems to be the cited article: http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10408440701516184 http://informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.1080/104084407015161... - That talks only about cancer and the nervous system, but not about obesity (for instance).
