If people are not aware of the dangers that can occur by consuming these chemicals please research it. Aspartame has been proven to cause seizures. It is almost all drinks, gums and diet products. HFCS is creating obesity in our children by making them more hungry when they are really full. Colors and flavors are not as bad but the red dye 40 has been linked to seizures as well. We have taken my son off all aspartame and as much HFCS, artificial colors and flavors as possible. Mexico and Canada have banned HFCS and aspartame.
