A Splenda'd piece worth reading...

Following up on a topic you read here first last week, my friend Michael Fumento has a really compelling take on Big Sugar’s attack on the artificial sweetener called Splenda. Big Sugar (or BS as Michael likes to call it) is trying, through a slick PR campaign, to start up yet another false-food-scare using TAXPAYER money from the huge subsidies that sugar gets every year to keep their prices artificially high and the competition artificially out of the market. You would think the last thing they would have problems with is an artificial sweetener. Oh well, can’t win in the marketplace, try your luck with lawsuits, of course it helps to have lots of taxpayer money to fund you. Give Michael a read, he’s smart and funny.
