OOh - I HEARD about that ... but I don't recall what it is! Sorry!

Cilantro is like that. Folks either LOVE it or HATE it. I'd rather suck cat poo off old pennies than eat cilantro.

About aspartame. I recently read about the health risks of NutraSweat and the only sources for the info I could find were sites that preached an exodus from Western medicine entirely. It is very very hard to either prove or disprove such emotionally-charged "correlations". I started drinking aspartame seven years ago - and I also developed a talent for migraine. On a friend's advice I banned aspartame from my diet for a month. No change in frequency or "shape" of the headaches. I went back to drinking aspartame - again no change either less or more, headache-wise.
So speaking for myself aspartame does not seem to be a poison.

Although id I don't get my Polysorbate 80 - I develop the shakes within a day - :-)
