Eggs bad. Eggs good.

Coffee bad. Coffee good.

On and on.

All “experts” and “studies”.

omg that photo of pesticides being sprayed on Pomegranate trees. 🥺

I knew though that with Trump - because of economic reasons, agriculture lobby, and Monsanto — he can’t be gung-ho with MAHA and RFK jr on the most sweeping things…

Does this have anything to do with the “snort your dinner” challenge?

Just something else for you to live in fear about.

Make your own choice, but I decided long ago not to live in fear.

Either the pests eat your food, and you starve and/or the pests attack your farm animals and you, and you die, or you die from the pesticide residue.
If People magazine cared so much, they would sponsor research into safer pest control methods.

Yet many Freepers are convinced that spraying ever more deadly poisons on our food is just fine.

Very interesting.
I can see how that may happen. Repeated exposures to the pesticides. Sad and ironic.

“fruits, vegetables and whole grains “

Carbs, carbs and more carbs which feed cancer.

Wash your produce in a baking soda and water bath. It will remove most of the toxic chemicals.

I have no reason to believe pesticides cause lung cancer. I might think they might be involved in GI cancers, but I have not heard of that either. This sounds like results from the same research group that said I have a plastic spoon’s worth of microplastics in my brain.
