    Cyclamates have been banned in the US since 1970. I’m not arguing it’s correct to do so.

    Saccharine tastes yucky, especially to kids, who have a stronger perception of bitterness. Again I’m not claiming it’s dangerous.

    I’m just pointing out the marketing difficulty.

      Right but it’s still used in the EU. Although… I will admit that I thought its ban had been lifted in the US when I made my post.
