>>”This is a food product, and they do have a health claim.” <<

What food doesn’t have an implied health claim. If you eat it, your body can convert it’s content to something that ensures your ongoing health.

Even McDonalds fries could make that claim.

We have a government of morons. This is a first amendment attack. They even say that what Cheerios says is accurate and factual, but apparently they need a license to say it.

Preposterous and insulting. I have no respect whatsoever for this government and, to be fair, this predates Obama AND Bush. This country is being run by intellectual children, for intellectual children.

You make a good point, this could disprove their nanny-stating against McDonalds Fries and what cooking oils ‘private’ establishments use. They’re looking at those as a disease, correct?

At this rate if I get too much Vitamin A, i’ll need a prescription for carrots and one for my bananas due to the potassium helping with my muscle spasticity. Yet placenta in shampoo and conditioners fine. /s

There has got to be some form of taxing in work here...At the very least a regulatory scheme to somehow benefit the government in some way...

This is only the begining, they will find other products to regulate, thus everything from the way it is produced, packaged, shipped, sold can be overseen...

Thats got to be what they are doing...

They’ll say you can’t sell it in regular grocery stores, which might very well crete a black market for the product.../sarc

But who knows...Stranger things ARE happening these days...

Thank you! Simply ingesting food itself, I'd like the FDA to explain how one can survive without eating, the ultimate in *health concerns*.

How is it possible that Wonder Bread ("Helps build bodies twelve ways") has managed to skate all these years? [/sarc]
