I found this really disturbing. I actually just had an argument with a friend of mine who is a pharmacist and she was saying how everything that is FDA approved is safe. Funny how a lot of these have studies linked to tumors and cancer and are yet FDA approved. Scary

Anyone who thinks things the FDA approves is good for you is crazy. Every day there is proof of crap the FDA approved that causes cancer and sickness. Unreal!

Seriously haven't we all learned by now that the government does not always have OUR best interest in mind, seemingly especially concerning food and drugs.

Wow this stuff doesn't even resemble food....and don't get me started on the Tropicana and the insect body parts...YUCK!!!!!!!

I think it is in one of Michael Pollan's books that he writes if your grandmother wouldn't recognize it as food don't eat it. Sounds like good advice.

Also, check out "Feingold Diet" on youtube. There is a short video(or 2) showing/telling about the different additives in foods. For example, food dye is made from petroleum (that does not usually come from our country). It's interesting!
