WTF are Food Inc, a repected foodie group in the USA, up to. On their Facebook page they say: "Let your Senators know that the Food Safety Modernization bill is worth their vote. Find out more about the current form of this important bill (which our partner orgs, Barbara Kowalcyk, Michael Pollan, and Eric Schlosser all support) at the link below......"
To the 284 people who've commented, I say:
I'm reading this in the UK and I sincerely hope that in America you have more sense than to allow government agencies to meddle in your lives more than is absolutely necessary. I tried to buy some reduced price onions on sunday - told I couldn't because they were out of date and had to be trashed: in other words I couldn't even have them for free. What sort of world are we living in when a date-stamper tells you what you can and can't eat?
