Wait, I'm confused. The BTVC

legal/illegal list says aspartame is legal (once symptom free and only 1

soda per week). So which is it? It doesn't really matter that much to me

because I don't drink it anyway but I figured I would ask

anyway.

My apologies if I've confused you.

Aspartame should not be used as a sweetener on a regular basis. You may

have one aspartame-sweetened soda per week.

I should, perhaps, have clarified that -- I consider aspartame to be

illegal because the very few times I've tried a soda since being SCD, it

generated an appalling craving for starch, starch, starch!

It used to do that to me pre-SCD, too. One diet soda used to result in my

eating an entire large bag of Doritos or something similar.

So, I sort of placed it in a for-me-illegal category. Gotta

remember to clarify between things which I have issues with, and things

which are bonifide SCD-illegal.
