An industry group. Of course it is okay. Their livelihood depends on making
sure that it is perceived to be okay. But it is still very un-Paleolithic,
and I don't trust any study funded by an industry group. Remember according
to the industry MSG and aspartame are totally safe. And they have studies
to prove it.
