IAN: That's why gorillas have such bad eyesight. :)
But what does it mean "the amount is less than a banana" ?
What amount ? Most nutra-sweet containing beverages have
it listed as the second or third ingredient. As I've read,
it's 10% methanol. This seems pretty high over all, espe-
cially if you consider some people drink 6 cans a day.
I suspect the consumption of nutra-sweet exceeds
on average the consumption of bananas.
And anyways, just because bananas may contain an
agent that is harmful does not mean that that agent
is no longer harmful simply because we think of
bananas as healthy. Pretty simple logic. It
could be that bananas have so much good
stuff--they do--it counters the bad.
