Every generation has some product/ingredient that they didn’t know was dangerous at the time: tobacco, lead, asbestos, etc. What is that item for this generation?

    Soft drink. They are just sugar water and color chemistry that give color and flavor.

          This just further reinforces that aspartame is safe, they’re not even reliably able to show that it causes cancer in any amount, just that it might do so.

          They specifically say that it’s perfectly fine to drink up to like 14 cans of aspartame soda per day for a 70kg person.
