Israelis love Coke Zero so this is big news. I wonder if it will make anyone think twice about drinking it.

I'll take my chances.
ReplyDeleteThey've done this many times before. It's nonsense.
ReplyDeleteThis is ridiculous, they go back and forth all the time. It's been on the market for 40 years (Since 1982) yet no one can point to a single person across the globe whose gotten cancer from this.
ReplyDeleteVirtually any food item if eaten to excess will give health problems.
Also I don't know why they feel the need to blacken Coke's name as if Pepsi is better? I just checked my fridge and the Pepsi 2 liter is also made with Aspartame (Equal). Yet all the news reports show coke pictures.
I was wondering that as well. My only thought was maybe Pepsi and others use a different sweetener and maybe Coca Cola has exclusive rights to Aspartame, even though I was pretty sure that is not the case...
DeleteYou can count on the media to be complete morons when it comes to reporting science. First, there's only one group that is making the claim which goes against decades of research and the conclusions of dozens (hundreds) of other agencies around the world. Second, they only said "possible" carcinogen. Third, not a single word on the dose level.
ReplyDeleteThis is sensationalistic fearmongering. Alcohol is considered carcinogenic. But where's that headline?
that headline probably happened back in 1988 when they determined it to be carcinogenic
DeleteHere's a time saving tip: if you smoke and/or drink alcohol, you can keep drinking Coke Zero
