AND saccharin was tested and found to be OK in fact the man who discovered it died last week @ at about age 84 - I used to love the stuff - it was the only time I could drink diet soda without getting that 'metal' taste - don't drink it now hey, you're gonna die when you're gonna die, not one second sooner or later - so why not enjoy life AND make it a SPICY one!!!!
