We know that sorbitol and most artificial sweetners are really bad for you.
But to see a tv show promote this, well, it baffles me.
Don't they read up on what they sponsor??

Nope Mel, unfortunately the way it works is based on how much a given sponsor is willing to pay for product placement in the show. I am sure they have some sort of medical advice on whether products are safe in moderation and in their minds they are basing it on that product is safer than eating cake or cookies etc.
I know not right but its how it works.
