I guess it's good that the sugar industry has enough money to fund studies of artificial sweetener and vice versa.

  How about developing enough self-control to avoid both products altogether?

    Blaming individuals in these scenarios is always strange to me, people mostly trust that the items they can purchase won't harm them. It's an immense burden to saddle the consumer with endless research of every product they purchase, on top of their usual time needs from work, commute, family.

      > people mostly trust that the items they can purchase won't harm them The state of California has made it abundantly clear that practically everything you can purchase there will harm you.

        No, what it has made abundantly clear is that poor incentives produce poor outcomes. There's significant penalty for underlabeling with regard to the known to cause cancer business and no penalty for gratuitous labeling. So every damn thing gets labeled to minimize potential liability and now carcinogenicity is a joke.
