Banned?! NOT In America! What it is, and what it does(to you)!

[Eden]

I know that there was a case that was either filed, or the people were thinking of filing, basically suing most corporate "food" companies in America for selling Unlabeled poison. A large amount of the additives in food are banned in many other countries because they are considered poison, but not in good ol Merica.

so lads and gents, what would be the solution here? less lobbying? more regulation?

[Grape Ape]

More self thinking, and better dietary education.

so, those foods banned in other countries remain approved in the US, but the government interferes by creating educational programs to teach the population not to eat them?

No, the government doesn't the population to do that. It just keeps pushing the food pyramid.

[BoneDaddy]

Self awareness, self thinking, and stop being a sheeple.

Pretty sure the Food Pyramid is an illuminati thing. Jay-z, Kanye, and George H.W. Bush want to give you wheat-belly.

So, the government does nothing about the banned floods, it just kills the food pyramid thing? That's be the ideal solution for you?

We can sit around, cry and wait for the government to do something, or we can educate ourselves.and the children about proper nutrition and healthy living.

Waiting around for someone else to do something, accomplishes very little. That all said, I am not against protest and pressuring the government for change. Plus, I'll admit I knew little about these harmful ingrediants, but here I am learning, and it only furthers my healthy eating habits and knowledge of. Maybe I'll pass on the information to others that show interest.

i completely understand and agree, but i guess the nature of my questioning is: should those ingredients be banned or not? if they are to be banned, who'll do the banning?
