Aspartame (NutraSweet and Equal etc) is about 180 times sweeter than sugar, and only a small does is plenty, but some diet drinks contain about 8 spoonfuls of the stuff erm

And it is broken down into these components, aspartic acid,
phenylalanine, and methanol.

methanol being the worst when heated erm

I stopped drinking diet drinks a while ago because of finding out how bad aspartame is, besides which my step-son has ADHD and it completely flips him!
