AE #5 Pink Slime....Rather Not

       I wonder why I always feel like I will be less amazed at the actions the government takes or doesn't. I feel like consuming food now days is as harmful as smoking cigarettes. Cancer is CANCER! Duh! How do they get away with it??? Who is the one getting away with anything? Why are you letting them do it to you. The FDA has passed probably the worst laws in America than anywhere in the world regulating their peoples consumption of food and quality!!!!!




               Damn the word Quality... What does that mean to us anymore. Just usually that if you pay more its better or cooler or whatever. Sadly smaller farmers do have to charge more for their organic food. The FDA allows food to pretty much say whatever they want and to the human consumer it is up to you to investigate. I think of it like 2 clear bottles exactly the same, with the same amount of liquid in each. One bottle has vodka and the other has water. If you were allergic to alcohol and you were dying of dehydration.



 wouldn't you investigate what you are about to put into your body before you put it in????? You are allowing another person control of killing you. Would you stand there and let someone shoot you if you could dodge and run????  If there was a proper market for REAL food than the FDA wouldn't get the paycheck.



       If schools cared about the food they were giving their students then the burden of food cost would also be on them. Hmmmm... makes me wonder why we have people like that in charge of our nations food and our children's health. I do not have children but I know that if I did, I would want the very best for their health and I think a lot of parents need to step up and take care of themselves and their children the way our bodies need us to. I hope more people speak about the importance of the quality of food you eat. I pray that the world puts its emergency brake on with what we are doing to ourselves, but until that day, changing one persons life a day has an incredible OUTCOME!
