    Poisoned by chewing gum

    Just watched on the news that woman complaining that the Aspartame in sugar free gum almost killed her.

    I know this isnt a new issue, it came out a couple of months ago but apparently shes stepping up her campaign to have it banned.

    Come on, she was eating 4-8 packets of gum per day. The food safety council says you wont have a problem unless you drink 14 cans of sugar free drink per day, every day, for decades.

    Anything is bad for you/can kill you if you take too much of it. Even water will kill you if you drink gallons of it.

    well my though is stupid tart should stop eating so much chewing gum, and she shouldn't be eating it anyway, chew and then spit

    she must of had some sorta nevious/mental disorder to chew that much alone.

    Yep, saw that, thought she was a silly bint trying to make people listen to her little plight. I mean seriously, 8 packets of gum a day? It was probably her alone in the country who consumed that much of the stuff.

    Too right. Aspartame is way less toxic than, oh, I dunno, ethanol.

    For that matter, sugar itself does plenty of harm. Rotted teeth, obesity and type II diabetes, anyone?

    All things in moderation, and if there's one truth that remains constant through the ages, it's that the majority of people are idiots.

    That's beside the point. What is of interest is that all the doctors have agreed it was Aspartamine that poisoned her, and yet it's supposed to be "harmless".

    Massive food companies say "harmless".
    Doctors who looked at the case say "poison".

    Sure you have to eat a lot of it to poison you, and maybe she was very sensitive or allergic to it, whatever, but we should know about the dangers. I didn't know. I would never eat that much anyway, but hey it's good to know.

    They say its harmless because they don;t expect people to eat that much gum... its even on the packs that too much consumption would have a laxative effect....can't be good for her bowels

    The doctors can get fucked too. The pc cunts are just trying to cover their wet nappy, limp wristed, daddy-put-me-through-uni severely man humped arses. Probably.

    Another example of shit news taking up too much air time. But funny none the less. I think the biafran slut should stick to blowing cock but find another way of clearing her breath.

    Ach, I dunno. I guess I just distrust ANYTHING food companies say. When it comes to additives they are just like tobacco companies. "oh no, it's fine, enjoy, here, have another."

    Aspartame is banned in Japan because of health concerns, and possibly some other countries, I can't quite remember.

    In Japan all of their "diet" or no-sugar products are sweetened by stevia, a natural herb with no side effects. Which is darned good stuff, I might add. Tastes just fine and you can cook with it.


    Sounds like the chewing gum lady has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder of the mouth.

    What a shame it's to do with chewing . . . I'm sure some kind male could help her out if it was compulsive sucking.

    I know that chick! She goes to the gym I do. We call her abs.. she's a bit nutty... trains everyday and is about 40kgs... sure she's not fat but man who'd wanna cuddle up to that at night?? If you haven't seen her she's very slight. Good abs but not much else (at least not above the shoulders!!)
