Ja I read it

Phenylalaline is a component of asperatame which is created through FERMENTATION AND SYNTHESIS. which means that they take phenylalaline and shmack it together with aspartic acid and methanol to make asperatame. kinda like when you put a hamburger patty on a bun then add ketchup then heat it to 420C and get a hamburger.

But IS PHENYLALALINE VEGAN is my question. They need to derive it from somewhere. I found a wiki entry on it and it says that it is found in mammal milk but also in other natural sources so please lets focus on whats important.

I'm not going to do all the work for you

The answer is there

From wikipedia

L-Phenylalanine is produced for medical, feed, and nutritional applications, such as aspartame, in large quantities by utilizing the bacterium Escherichia coli, which naturally produces aromatic amino acids like phenylalanine. The quantity of L-phenylalanine produced commercially has been increased by genetically engineering E. coli, such as by altering the regulatory promoters or amplifying the number of genes controlling enzymes responsible for the synthesis of the amino acid.

Phenylalanine is produced from E. coli case closed I'm Vegan.

Anything that harms the earth, aka you used a white man to get it from a factory is not vegan or friendly towards Gia. She thinks you are a dumb dumb and she's gonna choke the shit out of you with methane, Co2, acid rain, flesh eating backteria, zika virus, and basically hordes of plagues and locusts.

So no, it's not vegan.

Don't forget the estrogen turning all the frogs gay and cancer. And your going to die a sterile virgin. With ED.

Because of snapple.

Since I don't know you I gave the article a re-read thinking perhaps I could have missed something.

I didn't. Veganism has nothing to do with PKU.

So either you are willfully ignorant or trolling - in either case it was probably a good use of your time.

I don't generally troll outside of rnf.

Fermentation
Direct fermentation produces the starting amino acids needed for the manufacture of aspartame. In this process, specific types of bacteria which have the ability to produce certain amino acids are raised in large quantities. Over the course of about three days, the amino acids are harvested and the bacteria are destroyed.

1 To start the fermentation process, a sample from a pure culture of bacteria is put into a test tube containing the nutrients necessary for its growth. After this initial inoculation the bacteria begin to multiply. When their population is large enough, they are transferred to a seed tank. The bacterial Aspartame strains used to make L-aspartic acid and L-phenylalanine are B. flavum and C. glutamicum respectively

Like I said, the answer was there. You just missed it. So yes, I did waste my time heh.

Ah this link is what you're talking about, the one AFTER you asked me if I read it, not the creepy astronaut link you posted b4 which DEFINITELY doesn't say anything about the production process. Yep there it is.
