Todd thanks for bringing this thing full circle with that very interesting article.
I should not be stunned and amazed that in what is supposed to be one of the most technologically advanced countries on the planet we don't know what the heck we are eating because lobbyists are so powerful.
I sure hope this gains the traction it needs to pass.
Fishy Anyone who wants to talk about torte reform can shove it... Wow I can hear the GOP talking heads exploding right now, the hubris, the audacity of questioning that we not go along with their propaganda machines call for less rules and regulations, what do we think their going to do, hurt or kill us? Monsanto must have some great lobbyists, scumbags! Fishy

If you don't know what you are eating why would you eat it? People make the choice becasue its easy and cheap it has nothing to do with product labeling. It's always someone elses fault.

It's not just labeling. Even though you Corporate apologists think it's OK to poison people, soil and water, others don't. If it's labeled, more people will choose alternatives that are less harmful to the planet.
I doubt it the choice has been there all along, proof source did the labels on ciggaretes ever stop you from smoking? be honest.
Its just an easy traget if people looked at chemicals in their life in terms of exposure, food would be way down the list.

If people knew what garbage is in a lot of the "food" they sell us, then people would be a lot more concerned about it.
As with Hank above, if you don't care what's in your food, then that's your right...why should it bother you that others would like to know?
Fish on...

Whats to know? it's not a big secret that a bag of Doritios is not a natural food , there is no such thing as a Dorito tree and if you eat them you are eating chemicals etc. How stupid are you ? How is it that you drive to the store walk in and pay for the bag of Doritos eat them but it is Monsantos fault? You should be embarassed to admit you are that stupid. You should be embarrassed that you want a huge govt entity to protect you from your own stupidity.

I wan't even talking to you.
If they are poisoning the water and the soil its because people like you are paying them to do it. You have all the power you need just quit giving them your money. You won't do it because you are physically and intellectually lazy, you want luxury without consequences. It does not exist and any amount of regulation cannot create it.

No one forces you to buy crap, true...and those who sell crap should have to say so on the label so that you can exercise your right to not buy it...if it's not on the label you will have a hard time knowing if it's in there or not.
Joad can eat poison all he wants...I'd like to not, however, and I'd like to see what's in the food so I can make an informed decision.
Why anyone...anyone other than their bought and paid for politicians, at least...would argue against telling us what's in the food they are selling us is beyond me.
It makes idiots and imbeciles looks smart.
Fish on...

If it is processed and not a whole food it is most likely crap.

Yes, the metals in the products are listed (brass, with gold, silver, or copper finishes), and a warning that those metals have been shown to cause cancer in tests.
You should know the answer to such a softball question before asking it.
If anyone eats one of my lures and gets sick, they will have done so in spite of a warning telling them that eating my lures is bad for your health.
Fish on...
Todd
P.S. And unlike the things that you are supposed to put in your body, food, it's actually required in most places that I put that warning on the packaging...for stuff that you aren't even supposed to eat.
It makes sense to tell you not to eat fishing lures because they could be toxic, but it doesn't make sense to list the toxic ingredients on FUCKIN FOOD?

Nice try, Electro plating is one of the most toxic industrial processes. Not to mention the mining process to get the raw materials impact on the environment. You should put the 1000's of pages of MSDS and environmental impact statements with each lure. An informed consumer is a two way street.
Like I said before life expectancy has gone up drastically with people eating all this toxic food and toxic farming you are crying about. Which is only second to the simple fact that one has to be a complete moron not to know what is good food. Great Great grandma knew without the government having to tell her.

I'm not asking them to put all the damage to the ecoystem that their industrial farm did on the label, or to list all the components in the tractors they use and where they call came from and what waterway was damaged by the mining of the ore for their shovels...I'm just asking them to put on the label if the ingredients are GMO, or not.
It's not like they have to do a big study, or spend a bunch of money...they already know if it is or is not. They can put it on the label just as easily as everything else, but don't.
Fish on...
Todd

Vintage Elvis right there.
'The electroplating process used to make Todd's lures is waaaaay toxic, so companies shouldn't have to tell you what's in your food.'
WTF???
He's the King of Trolls. We need to learn not to feed him.

There's a big difference between a bag of Doritos and GMO peas, corn, strawberries or beef.
I have no expectation of labeling on Doritos since I know the Dorito tree is mexican and therefore my enemy. My corn on the cob is a different a different animal.

Seriously? You've never annihilated a bag of nacho cheese Doritos? I can not make that claim.............unless we're talking the last week or so.
