Normal Coke has about 6 teaspoons of sugar per can

Diet Coke contains aspartame - which is broken down to ethanol by the human body and just happens to be poisonous...

Take your pick...

Ali

IIRC Teaspoon = 5g and tablespoon = 10g

So 35g = 7.5 teaspoons - Imagine putting that into a cup of tea

[Aspartame]highly predictive of carcinogenic risk for humans. In light of this fact, the results of the CRC/ERF study on aspartame call for urgent reconsideration of regulations governing its use as an artificial sweetener in order to better protect public health, in particular that of children.
hmmmm - doesn't sound good.....plus I thought Aspartame was banned in the US od A...?
Or something like its not used in Diet Coke over there due to health concerns...
