This is the problem for us who live in developing and underdeveloped countries. We are the trash dump for products from developed countries, where in their own countries the products have been banned of the sort.

This is not a new case actually. Before, the truth behind it was not known by us the victims due to the lack of the information. But now we have internet, informations spread a lot faster. The problem is, our governments hardly do anything to anticipate. Why oh why? Heh, the world is ruled by the more stronger parties, no?

And, why this happens? 'Cause, money is the almighty god. Plus, thick of hidden agenda. Wonder where did their sense of humanity has gone to.

This is going to be a loooooooong rant out of me if I go on. One thing will let to another but at the end we will only find ourselves in an endless circle of injustice toward humanity *sigh*

Hmmm...it's difficult to estimate how bad it is.
I remember some 10-15 years ago when coca-cola light and other low-fat drinks were first introduced here, since then from time to time there always has been noise about the side-effects of aspartame. The verdict I believe is that in low dossages consumption of aspartame isn't harmful. I think that I heard somewhere that the threshold of getting dangerous amounts of it in your system is drinking some douzines of cans of light-drinks daily.
Though I'd never buy aspartame instead of sugar.

What caused real panic here a decade or so ago is this,
THE most unhealthy ever thing, from which every living being, should stay away! Food additives carrying the letter E in front of their name.
Here's a list with them http://users.hol.gr/%7Eccoboroz/FoodAdditives.pdf
