FDA: Expose Hidden Artificial Sweeteners

Require all manufactured, altered and non-100% natural foods to identify artificial sweeteners as such in the list of ingredients as well as prominently note on the front label, that the product contains artificial sweeteners.

Why is this important?

I've thrown out hundreds of dollars worth of food this year. Why? Hidden artificial sweeteners. They give me headaches, stomach aches and can make me ill for days. With the ever growing list of artificial sweeteners available, it's impossible for consumers to remember all the names. Even if it were possible, consumers would need to read the ingredient label of every product they consider buying to find the artificial sweeteners. Why? The FDA doesn't require that products containing artificial sweeteners place that information prominently on the front label where consumers can easily and quickly find it.
