Pictured are rows of artificially sweetened sodas on a grocery shelf with a "saccharin warning label" in front of them. The legal banning of artificially sweetened products was prevented by consumer pressure. FDA warning labels are on such products and the consumer must make a personal decision about using these products containing saccharin. In 1997 the FDA was considering taking saccharin off the list of possible carcinogens.
