Whenever the health Nazi stuff comes up trying to needlessly scare people, I go read the MDSD for the product in question.

To start, Material Safety Data Sheets are designed for doctors and safety people to understand, not the general public. They are dry and very clinical, using lots of acronyms. So if some soccer mom reads the MDSD for DHMO, she gets the vapors, not realizing DHMO is water.

I always look at toxicological data, usually lab tests on rats. I review the LD50, which is the lethal dose for about 50% of the population that ingests it.

The LD50 for acrylamide is 565 mg/kg. So, a 190 lb man weighs about 4.5 kG. 565X4.5=1543 mG of acrylamide.

Since acrylamide levels in coffee are about 200 parts per billion (of 1 billions drops of coffee, 200 are pure acrylamide) the trace amount.

If you were to take that further, a billion drops of water equates to about 28 billion gallons of coffee. Of that, 200 milligrams are acrylamide. That equals roughly FOUR DROPS of Acrylamide in 28 billion gallons of coffee.

Result-California regulators are scientifically illiterate and completely insane.

Does it seem that Cali is at war with Starbux? I mean last week they were threatening to take away SB’s trademark green Frappuccino straws.

California is at war with sanity.

Look to Venezuela for a glimpse of things to come.

Because coffee contains a trace amount of a chemical known as acrylamide

I'm sure that if they examine water very carefully, they'll find trace amounts of some toxic material or other, and they could do the same with air.

Water and air are going to have to be declared toxic and then regulated and taxed to death.

Food can be considered dangerous too, being as how consuming any of it can lead to overweight and obesity in many people. So, food will have to be considered dangerous too, and regulated and taxed at much higher levels than present.

IOW, there is no limit to the stupidity of the liberal left. Time to outlaw them. They are more dangerous to Americans and America than any substance that might kill us.

When coffee is outlawed...

Outlawed? This is the empire of Moonbeam the moronic and his moronistas, they won't outlaw something as lucrative as coffee! They will come up with a scheme to tax it like cigarettes to protect the poor ignorant masses from freewill, Moonbeam believes that it takes a village..........idiot, and he's the biggest idiot there is in the village called California.

What sort of risk is Kalifornia? Hint: it’s a long list.

I’d say that California has jumped the shark, but they did that years ago. One of the interesting repercussions of trying to eliminate coffee consumption is that there are places in the world where coffee is essentially the only actual cash crop. I have a Rwanda bean that is a part of my normal purchase when I make my quarterly green coffee bean buys. What the hell else does Rwanda, Ethiopia, Congo, and many other third-world shitholes have to export?

There would not be a super majority of commie liberal politicians running California if it were not for the masses of insane liberal voters. We sane conservatives are a small and rapidly dwindling body in California. The numbers of insane liberal voters are growing by leaps and bounds.

The state of fruits and nuts has a well deserved reputation.

MDSD = Material Safety Data Sheet?

I think you're dysacronymic. ;-)

Don't forget the flakes! You don't have granola without the flakes.
