There's loads of instances of times where companies are doing shady shit with our food that I could post. For instance - think of Nestle and the baby powder scandal.
Not poison but still pretty fucking dark.
You'd probably just call me out for "whataboutism" so you don't have to answer try and justify your point
Are they still watering California organic produce with fracking fluid?
If you're going to put words in my mouth, why should I bother? That especially seems unfair since I believe I answered your last reply in pretty damned good faith.
I was thinking OP was going for "chemicals bad". Nestle is a good example. And frankly, the sugar cartel and corn....... well maybe not corn cartel, but corporate farm certel perhaps has pushed so hard for corn subsidies that we put corn syrup (not inherently bad) in everything and push corn products and grow corn to burn in our cars.....
I still think our food supply is generally safe - generally.
But anyway. Care to put any more words in my mouth?
