Agree that sugar is absolutely terrible for you, and aspartame is much less bad. What the WHO's talking about is strictly "possible" cancer risk. Based on my understanding, it's highly likely it's more worth it to face possible cancer risk thank the 100% definitive high risk of disease from sugar in the diet. The main thrust of my point is that there's no reason it shouldn't be on group 2B, and the FDA claiming otherwise is silly.
