Except that when the problems over aspartame were first raised which was
something like 20 years ago, it was the fear of memory loss due to the stuff
being used so frequently, and that I believe is true, I used to drink a lot
of lemonade type drinks which had nothing in them for sweetening, except
aspartame, and my memory was, at the, time very bad, and I still suffer from
it.

Why manufacturers still use it defeats me.
