We heart junk science

This ‘danger, Splenda is toxic and anyone who eats anything sweet will surely die’ website is entirely bollocks from start to finish. One thing I love about the Internet is the number of utter nutcases who think they’re Doing Science and Saving The World, rather than scaremongering and wasting everyone’s time.

My favourite part of the whole text is "the manufacturer claims that the chlorine added to sucralose is similar to the chlorine atom in the salt (NaCl) molecule. That is not the case". What, so Splenda’s makers have added extra neutrons to their chlorine? Truly they are evil scientists…

  1. "None. Manufacturer’s "100’s of studies" (some of which show hazards) were clearly inadequate"

    As my old mother always said, never trust researchers who don’t know how to use apostrophes.

  2. ‘A recent report showing that nearly 100% of independent research has found problems with aspartame’

    Yes, it tastes vile.
