What Can You Do To Avoid Monsanto's New, Deadlier Neurotoxic Sweetener? Very Little

Read about Monsanto's new aspertame replacement: 'neotame.' It's sweeter, deadlier, and has no labeling requirements at all. None. It can show up in meat (and maybe milk?) as it's fed to cattle, it can show up in both conventional and organic products. About the only place it will never show up is on a label. Bon appetit!

Disgusting and unacceptable. But quite what we've come to expect from Monsanto, the de facto lords of American agribusiness.

The anonymous comment was mine. I keep getting kicked out of login for some reason.

Thankfully and much to Monsanto's distaste, such products have to be labelled here and any attempt to import will fall under the same restrictions that cover GMO's.

Oh boy.

I can't get much info on wikipedia. That page, and other pages on additives such as saccharin, have been edited to death by the Big Agri PR people. (And this is coming from someone who generally trusts wikipedia.)
