its not so much getting fat, its much more about cancer and not having children.
if you like eating this poison, then enjoy it.
if you are butthurt that other people are getting aware then good.
if you think its "gay" good for you.
we people prefer natural stuff, pure food.
if you think you are a cool guy eating your processed ice cream with 10 stabilizers enjoy.

Did you just say EVEN sneakers ice cream? You think sneakers is a good brand? Far from it, ALL main stream candy company's put poison in their candy. EVERY SINGLE MAINSTREAM FOOD BRAND IS POISON! I know from experience. 6 years ago I made a choice to go on a strict diet. No GMO, unatrual chemicals, ect... Start looking at ingredients in all your food. Even if it says "all natural". It is hard to come by healthy ice cream, you have to go to a organic store. I know ben and jerrys has some ice creams witch do not contain crap as well as ben and jerry's but not much.

I have to agree the amount of health nuts that have popped up over the last 5-10yrs is laughable. They attack one thing after another.You think ok well now that they have finished determining this is bad for me we can move on. Oh no wait another thing that is bad for me?
First off I agree 100% that a good majority of people in at least America (won't speak for other countries) have been eating this stuff for the last 50 + yrs. Not all of us are dying and or dead from some horrible food induced disease. I remember when I was about 12 or so it was Saccharin and everyone said we were going to die from cancer for drinking diet drinks and sugar free gum.
I also wanted to point out that by a general rule Ice Cream isn't necessarily a health food lol, so not sure what the deal is there anyway. Aside from that I think all these don't eat this, don't smoke that, and don't drink that people need to learn to live and stop trying to keep others from doing so. Life truly doesn't revolve around insurance rates, medical costs, and artificial ingredients. I promise you there is a lot more to it, and the sooner you start living the better off we will all be

I laugh at all you jumping on the Organic diet bandwagon and such. Its freaking hilarious. I grew up eating all kinds of crap (and up until my back injury in January of this year) I had 6% body fat. No special diet. I eat whatever I want, work out and train.
Oh, and Im not a young kid either. Its just laughable to hear people with their diet plans, magic pills, new fad workouts, etc. How about you just moderate the caloric intake, get up off the couch and get some freaking exercise?

This may be a bit of a one liner, but you do know that Whole Foods & other such stores are not able to completely block out GMOs, yes? You may already be consuming them unless you strictly only eat your own food.

How would you even know how healthy food was ages ago?
Before the FDA no one was required to put ingredients on labels. Companies were known to put some actual poison such as arsenic and paint thinners in their food. It wasn't until the FDA came into existence that they could ensure the food was actually safe to eat. Back in the day if 1200 people in a town died of salmonella it was probably blamed on the wrath of God. Now we know, thanks to the FDA and USDA that it's actually farm workers using the spinach crops as a bathroom.

We have not been eating this crap for 50 years. It is now in just about every thing. Its very hard to find REAL processed food in a regular grocery store. You obviously have no idea what they put in your food or you would not eat it. Would you pour juice inside the gas tank of your ferrari? Well you eat crap so you probably would pour juice in the gas tank of a ferrari.
Have you seen the cancer death rates? Do you know what aspertaim is? Do you know how many people die a year from drinking diat soda and eating gum witch contain aspartame a HIGHLY toxic ingredient used to make PAINT. Do you know what agenda 21 is? This poisen is in your food for population control. If your stupid enough to eat it and think that it does not effect your body or mind like your some kind of supper being then maybe you need to be apart of the population control.
Oh and no one is keeping you from eating this crap, if you want to eat it its your choice. I think its a dumb choice, your paying large supper company's witch are taking our freedom to poisen you.
IV. Background on Aspartame
The tumultuous history of the food additive aspartame began serendipitously thirty-five years ago. On the day that James M. Schlatter, a chemist, unintentionally discovered it, he was working on an anti-ulcer drug. As Mr. Schlatter mixed asparatic acid and phenylalanine, two naturally occurring amino acids that are the building blocks of protein, he stuck his finger in the mixture and for some reason decided to taste it. "I licked my finger and it tasted good." He later recalled. And with that, a new, low-calorie sweetener was born. [20] What has happened since that fateful day in 1965 comprises the additive's struggle from birth to maturity; not unlike a human being moving from inception to adulthood, aspartame has overcome many hurdles and incited much controversy on its path to a somewhat more stable maturity.
Creating High Fructose Corn Syrup
Until 1957, no one believed corn could be sweet. As for high fructose corn syrup, how could that be? Corn has glucose not fructose. Researchers created an enzyme called glucose isomerase in 1957. It rearranged the composition of glucose in corn syrup and made it into fructose. It turned a mildly sweet corn syrup into the highly sweet high fructose corn syrup. It began being produced on an industrial scale in the 1970s.
