I like diet coke, even though the **** they put in it causes brain cancer.
Ah yet another myth; aspartame became popular in the 80s after Nutri-Sweet patented it, because it was the only artificial sweetener invented at the time that did not cause cancer in lab rats.

Aspartame is not a carcinogen

Edit: Btw, Nutrisweet's patent on aspartame expired years ago, so almost every artificial sweetener manufacturer uses it now.

And Troutman, thought that site is interested, none of its links sites any study in a peer review scientific journal. Links only take oyu to other anti-aspartame sites.

Im not defending aspartame, as I hate diet drinks. But I have yet to see any legitimate study show that aspartame causes cancer.
