Why would they be designed to taste bad?
They aren't.
Not designing them to taste good != designed to taste bad

They taste like raw chemicals.

I will say that there is a metallic aftertaste, but I still enjoy it.

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
There's no evidence artificial sweeteners are dangerous in any reasonable dosage, and regular soda has more sugar than you should have in two days.
Neither is Mercury at a reasonable dosage.

Exactly. It's safe to eat a salmon fillet for the same reason it's safe to drink a diet soda. There's very little difference in veracity between a claim that vaccines are unhealthy and that aspartame is unhealthy.

Fuck off. Aspartame is literally a carcinogen.

Quite a lot of carcinogens exist in natural foods like meat and fruit. The poison is in the dosage, not the substance.

That said, aspartame isn't on any list of known carcinogens.

One would still question using it in the first place.

Seeing as heart disease caused by excessive sugars and fats in our diet is the leading cause of death in the U.S., one probably wouldn't question too hard the use of a proven harmless substance. Aspartame use is arguably a more thoroughly researched science than GMOs at this point. It is literally just a basic composition of two amino acids that break down exactly the same way as protein, and is 200 times sweeter than sugar.

It is less sugary though, unless you meant sweet, at which point you're just arbitrarily vilifying a flavor.

I can't into words, but it sounds dumb to start taking a bunch of artificial sugar just because you can't take as much real sugar anymore.

Yeah, to some extent I think we've gone too far with being used to sweet and fatty foods, and I think everyone would benefit from making their diet less reliant on sweeteners, but replacing 300 calories of pure sugar in a widely available soft drink with a fairly decent, zero calorie substitute seems like a middle ground. Kind of like banning trans fats and stuff like that.

As someone who pays next to no attention to what I am eating, I thought this was something really only relevant(not saying it should be completely ignored otherwise) to diabetes patients?

Also, diet soda always tastes worse than high fructose corn syrup or actual sugar, so how does it taste even sweeter than either?
