Contaminated food ping

The WHO does not classify the chemical as a carcinogen for people.

No? interesting.. they think vitamins are dangerous, but not humans and animals consuming plastic. Only confirms my already low opinion of the WHO.

I bought a frozen pizza recently and see that it contains wheat gluten. I wonder if it’s an imported ingredient for pizza crusts, or if it’s a natural part of the crust-making process? I’m not going to eat it yet.

It’s about time. Took them long enough to figure out that this may have made it’s way into the human food chain. It’s the first thing I thought of.

"We believe the safety net is in place to make sure that no additional products are going to get into the commerce of the United States," said David Elder, director of FDA's enforcement office.

We can all sleep easy tonight with the FDA on the job -- and above all else, keep those Chinese food imports coming, please sir.

I’m going to be an extra thorough label reader from now on, and not eat any food I buy for awhile after purchasing it. It will stay in the freezer or cans, just to be a little more sure.

The FDA is working with the U.S.

Amazing! Since they're only funded by the U.S.

[Palladin]

Thanks for the ping (I think)...

This is all we need—to have the entire food chain contaminated by toxins from China!

Good motivation to go on a new diet! The nothing-from-China Diet.

Townies, it’s time to till under the lawn, and plant Freedom Gardens; raise a few chickens or rabbits in the garage; get rid of the chlorine, and plant catfish & tilapia in the swimming pool.

We Country Cousins are already ahead of the game, so y’all better hurry & catch up.

Will trade knowledge & advice for labor; dude farm vacations available; reasonable rates!

Coming soon:
