Aspartame can step aside. There's a new sweetener in town and it isn't saddled with the inconvenience of having to be listed on labels, so it can be sneaked into any prepared food, even USDA so-called Organic. So sayeth the FDA. Neotame is a Monsanto-created chemical similar to Aspartame, including its neurotoxic properties.
Monsanto developed Neotame as their Aspartame patent was expiring, and had no trouble in gaining FDA approval in 2002. They added 3-dimethylbutyl, a chemical listed as hazardous by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to Aspartame, making it both sweeter and more toxic.

In my humble opinion it looks like Monsanto is a corporation hell bent on killing and maiming the human race. If it was up to me I'd have them shut down - to protect public safety.
While we are at it, the board of the FDA needs to be replaced immediately before they allow any more harm to be done to the people.
