sweet tooth

Has the smell/taste of a stevia, troll, or it's flip side, a
Aspartame troll basher.

I need help choosing a sweetner- there are so many
sweetners out there!!! Which is the better of the two-
Acesulfame K or Aspartame? I know they are both linked with
cancer but I can't find any gum without
it. Also I have tried stevia, but it tasted too sweet. Is
there a certain stevia brand I should be purchasing?

sugar alcohols. cary's sugar-free syru

So many reasonable intelligent people have opinions on all of these and
other sweeteners, it's hard to find one to recommend. I personally use
Splenda (a brand of sucralose) but the guy from www.mercola.com thinks the
stuff is just as bad as aspartame et al. I don't know what to believe
anymore. 🙁

Acesulfame-K and aspartame "linked with cancer." Peer
reviewed studies do not justify such a statement (see
Medline).

Stevia "too sweet"? Use less.

Absolutely. Many artificial sweeteners in their purest
form are absurdly sweet. Take sucralose for example and
aspartame and saccharin, etc. They're all hundreds of
times sweeter than sugar if taken absolutely pure. So
they dilute them hundreds of times when putting them in
the little paper packet thingies and stuff. A pinch goes
a loooooooooooooong ways.
