Why don't you quote what I said instead of putting words in my mouth in order to build up that straw man you just knocked over?

Never said I knew is was supposedly bad - what I said was that I could deduce what "hydrogenated oil" was - but you knew that, as did everyone else reading this thread.

The point I made then is still valid, and you have done nothing to change that, or debate it: A manufacturer does not have a duty to foresee everything that might be wrong with their product in twenty or even ten years, especially if it affects less than one one-hundredth of the population. People with allergies and sensitivities have a responsibility to look out for themselves and all your whining is just that.

In addition, the governments only course of action in any case should be to recommend that people not eat it or feed it to children, especially considering that the conclusion is not concrete by any stretch.

I suppose I should apologize for being rude. I didn't mean to but I had just been released from the hospital and I was still hurting. Sorry.

I am not sensitive or allergic to anything. I simply enjoyed pop-tarts in the morning, two or three cookies a day and I loved my salsa at night and in the afternoon. Because of that, I had what could have been, because I was cutting the grass and riding my bike alone, a death sentence. I also did what the doctors have said, everything right. I exercised, checked my cholestral and they are perplexed. I had high blood pressure during the period when I lost my job and since retiring, it's normal. Heart disease before 65 is not in my family. I have never smoked or drank socialable except one or two drinks on a holiday as toasts.

I'm going back in a couple of weeks to find out why this happened by running blood tests. I also start re-hab next week for the next ten weeks.

The hernia that the doctor caused when he forced the plug in my main artery will have to addressed next month. I'm still black and blue and swollen from the angioplasty.
