I truly believe that food and the chemicals we are
using in today’s society is one of the bigger issues we face daily. I read an
article stating that cancer rates have risen 40 percent since 1960 and are
expected to rise 50% by 2020. WHY is this happening it’s been proven that the
chemicals used in the foods we eat today cause cancer, it’s no secret. It’s
half our fault and half the industry’s fault. How do you think companies are
able to sell you that double cheese for ninety nine cents? It’s crazy to think
they can do that without using processed foods. I watched the video, The World
According to Monsanto, and I had actually never heard of PCB’s. It’s crazy to
think those people in Alabama had absolutely no clue. What was even more
shocking was the files shown in the video that were marked to be destroyed. How
can we as Americans not do something about this, where is our backbone? If
companies like Monsanto are able to do this then what makes people think that
brand names on food aren’t in on this. I took the time to research what the
requirements were for any food maker to out either “natural” or “organic.” The
results to me were shocking, when I see food labeled natural I think it’s made
totally natural safe just how it came. All it needs to be to be considered natural
by the FDA is have no artificial colors or preservatives. I can’t believe this
we need to do something before it’s too late.
