Your link is a vegan site, I am more than a little nervous about the discrediting of any products. When it comes to single/closed mindedness, I would place Peta, and the Vegan's at the top of my list..

These are well meaning people, and I have friends that are followers, but any position that these folks take, or assertions they put forth without certifiable proof I have to withhold my judgment until I balance their views against the evidence.. Just thought you should know..

I don't use aspertame. As a matter of fact, I rarely use sugar or any type of sweetener (I'm sweet enough...HA!). I don't bake much, so never had the need for it. I did purchase Splenda to make your cheesecake recipe, Carlo, but so far that's the only time I've used it. The cheesecake was delicious, btw!
