shine
i don't know about the eighty percent but the the article brilliantly outlines
how there's tons of foods

in the u_s_ you can keep serving if your kids for breakfast because of you know
freedom and liberty and
all that cool stuff really though this brings up obvious questions about the
f_d_a_ we've been talking about the f_d_a_ for a long time
i'm very concerned about the f_d_a_ particularly on the pharmaceutical side
but also on the food side and uh...
i'd just i i i i guess we have to congratulate monsanto for successful
lobbying of the f_d_a_
yeah i mean it's getting to the point where we might as well just eliminate
the f_d_a_ that we save some money military federal spending right you
would think so i always edba as ron paul wants to do right
amina that
uh... the other thing by the way we've because we've talked about paint fly in
on the show you know that the uh... it's the big ground beef additive that's used
thanks lina does not meet the legal requirements for sale in the united
kingdom and the european union has bandit and other mechanically separated
meets for human consumption some countries do allow pinks line but only
in pet food
indeed u_s_
ground beef is very commonly filled with pink slime
what's your reaction when you hear something like this in time
uh... my reaction is that we should go to canada
no bitterness and it is the reaction is
you've got a shop mostly around to the
uh... outer edge of the grocery store avo avoid most of those middle
uh... our health that have not for this stuff and what else can you do
this uh... the f_d_a_
will never recruits it in this country
the only possible thing that you can do
is uh... inform people and make sure people start buying the right things and
then companies will have to adapt and change in eliminator for practices or go
out of business from in other words reduce the demand for the garbage
send me your thoughts on this how where of this type of thing are you
