This is precisely the strategy of Ajinomoto, maker of aspartame, which hopes to pull the wool over the eyes of the public with its re branded version of aspartame, called "AminoSweet".

Ajinomoto also makes Monosodium Glutamate (aka. 'MSG'), an
excitotoxin that is the bane of every health conscious individual. MSG leeches Taurine and Vitamin B6 from your body, and has been known to provoke horrific allergic reactions. Ajinomoto is bad news for the planet. They seem to specialize in being merchants of dis-ease.
Oh yeah, and
Donald Rumsfeld can have my share of AminoSweet, or whatever they are re-branding it as this week. I hope it goes down really smoothly for him while he is trying to remember how many houses he owns.
