99/Barbara Feldon nailed that hilarious and complicated scene to perfection. She oozed sexiness in every scene she was in no matter how ridiculous the situation was. Btw sodium calcium chloride is harmless. Sodium chloride is table salt and calcium chloride is put int foods to give it a more salty flavor without having to add more sodium chloride/salt. To commit suicide by ingesting it you'd have to eat a LOT more than can be put inside a ring as shown in this scene. I'm guessing at least a half a pound of it if not more..

The nameless artificial sweetener referenced in this clip is Cyclamate. It was widely used in the 1960's before being banned in the U.S. in 1969, the year this episode aired. It was frequently in the news at the time, which made it a topical reference for comedy bits like this. (I'm old enough to remember those times well.)

Cyclamate, discovered by accident in 1937, is an artificial chemical sweetener that is still used today. It is used like most zero-calorie sweeteners, is heat stable, and has a long shelf life. Food factories sometimes use this as a masking agent and sweetener enhancer. Cyclamate has zero glycemic index and zero calories, and is one of the cheapest artificial sweeteners in the world. In the 1960s, studies showed that cyclamate caused development of tumors in the bladders of rodents when fed large quantities. The U.S. banned cyclamate in 1969 due to the results of the study, however, the toxic ingredient is used in many other countries up until now. A common brand name of cyclamate is Sucaryl, manufactured by Merisant, and is sold in more than 90 countries worldwide.

@craiglachman1379

I'd blame the writers! At that point in the show, I think Buck Henry and Mel Brooks were (more or less) Californians. I'd bet most of the writing staff (if they used a stable) would have been LA-based. I don't know where 99 hails from, but Barbara Feldon grew-up in your neck of the woods (well, a few hours away). BTW, "freeways" seems to now be the norm in most of the West and some of the Midwest. I rarely hear "Route", occasionally "highway". In San Francisco during the 60s, I could tell who was from southern California because they always said, "we just take the 101 to the 10...." My parents, who used "freeway" generally, would say, "highway 1-oh-1". The old LA phraseology is now used in the Bay Area; most everyone (my mother included), just says, "I'll take the 2-eighty". Yup. Blame the writers! (While I'm procrastinating: Regarding toll roads, things have changed in the last 50 years, but still, ~15 westernish states have no toll roads. In Colorado, I'm aware of only one, built recently. In California, there are a few, mostly built in the late 80s and 90s. So that terminology would never be heard.)
