To live, is by definition, to be in danger.
Now that’s a high crime right there.
Brussels sprouts are horrid little things. I don’t care how people prepare them; they’re gross. Not even bacon can save Brussels sprouts. 😖
They will just have to come up with a safe level of chocolate ration
You think that is going to stop me? Guess again!
Inspector Magoo gets fired
Thanks for the link.
Trader Joe’s makes some amazing dark chocolate peanut butter cups. I’ll risk the heavy metals.
Notice that arsenic is one of the ingredients...............
Balance off the Heavy Metal by listening to some Carpenters as you eat them and yule be fine...............
Consumers Reports was founded by Commies(Consumers Union) in 1936. Take their reviews with a big grain of salt. Bought some products they recommended highly in the early 90’s. They were crap. Never trusted them again.
They’ve taken “donations” for years from who they are reviewing. Completely “voluntary” of course.
Exactly...no brands are named
I think you’re confusing Cadbury with cad berry. Pretty sure cadmium is made out of cad berries.
Is chocolate more effective than placebo at preventing Covid?
Well, there is your answer./s
ALL BABY FOOD HAS HEAVY METAL TOXINS. Still on the shelves, but still no formula fix for 13 months ongoing.
CANDY AND COOKIE MAKING time. FDA has been sending out more than average food recalls, lettuce and hamburger have seen the highest recalls, and some spotty dairy mainly local cheeses. This is not the 1st recall, had one at Halloween.
They miss the Junk food people are hooked on. I follow the recalls as I have a gastro condition that food affects. Can’t take too many of those painful attacks, with no pain meds.
I belatedly clicked on the Consumer Guide link, and they posted all the specific candy bars, with photos of the wrappers.
Dark chocolate appears to be a rather exclusive and expensive item.
Most chocolate candy is milk chocolate, which apparently dilutes cadmium and lead below the current danger level.
Noting that it was up to each original American colony to inspect its own exported goods, not only did the states reserve for themselves the power of inspecting products before leaving a state, but the Supreme Court has historically clarified that this inspection power is unique to the states.
"Article I, Section 10, Clause 2: No State shall, without the Consent of the Congress, lay any Imposts or Duties on Imports or Exports, except what may be absolutely necessary for executing it's inspection Laws [emphasis added]: and the net Produce of all Duties and Imposts, laid by any State on Imports or Exports, shall be for the Use of the Treasury of the United States; and all such Laws shall be subject to the Revision and Controul of the Congress.
”State inspection laws, health laws , and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"§ 1014. Inspection laws are not, strictly speaking, regulations of commerce, though they may have a remote and considerable influence on commerce. The object of inspection laws is to improve the quality of articles produced by the labour of a country; to fit them for exportation, or for domestic use. These laws act upon the subject, before it becomes an article of commerce, foreign or domestic, and prepare it for the purpose. They form a portion of that immense mass of legislation, which embrace every thing in the territory of a state not surrendered to the general government [emphasis added]. [...]" — Justice Joseph Story, Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2, 1833.
The bottom line concerning government product warnings is this imo. I'd take warnings about heavy metal in dark chocolate for example, more seriously if many state inspection departments were independently expressing concern about heavy metal in dark chocolate instead of the corrupt, untrusted, unconstitutionally big federal government that doesn't have the express constitutional power to inspect commerce goods in the first place.
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
There’s a shocker.
