Taste

The article makes no mention of the perceived taste of sucralose. Some references to subjective observations and objective testing would be useful. Anecdotally, it is known that many consumers find the sweetener to have an unpleasant aftertaste. algocu (talk) 20:07, 29 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Other Potential Effects

This section is a bit confusing. The Duke University study concluded there might be health effects, but Duke University said the study was not rigorous? Some clarifications of the individual parties within Duke would be helpful. Andy Kass (talk) 16:22, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Center for Science in the Public Interest downgrades Sucralose safety

The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), a nonprofit watchdog group, said today that it was downgrading its safety rating of sucralose from "safe" to "caution," meaning that the additive "may pose a risk and needs to be better tested." This should be integrated in the article. Ref: Fox News: [1] CSPI press release: [2] MaxPont (talk) 09:30, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
