Some foods and ingredients consumed in the US and approved by the FDA are found to be so unhealthy by other countries that they are banned.
While some might believe that if the Food and Drug Administration has approved of a food, ingredient of additive it must be safe. The FDA has actually stated, “Because of inherent limitations of science, FDA can never be absolutely certain of the absence of any risk from the use of any substance.”
SEE PAGE 2 FOR LIST:
But raw milk is illegal and will get a SWAT team on your $#%&!@*. Murica!!!
Who says the standards in other countries are superior to our standards ? Just because they ban something and the FDA doesnt , doesn’t mean they are correct and the FDA is wrong.
The reason..you have uneducated people STILL trusting our government (& there friend Monsanto) to keep us all safe! Not all countries want to kill there people. The poison is in our food on purpose in this country!
Food safety is not the only factor in banning these products/technologies. Politics plays a big role. For example Sonera European Countries have some of the most subsidized farming systems in the world. Farmers there and the seed companies that supply them do not want the compe$#%&!@*ion farm foreign seeds or grains, unless they are having shortages. They also approve the use of certain pesticides and herbicides that are banned in the US.
There are also studies coming out of the United Kingdom that show no difference between GMO and no-GMO in terms of health risks.
Marsha Fleeger, please disclose if you are an astroturfing corporate shrill.
The list of foods that contain GMOs in the US is long, while numerous countries have bans and restrictions on GMOs. The US is one of the only industrialized nations that doesn’t at least label. A minimum of 165 million acres are currently planted with GMOs in the US. In Europe all products containing more than .9 percent GMO are labeled as such – but no such luck in the US!
Thankfully, this is changing. Vermont just won a labeling victory and other states are likely soon to follow.
Our diet is going to kill us slow and painful
How cares what’s banned in other countries.
Our government is positioning us
