What is your opinion on Food Additives?
ALL food additives (healthy or not) should be OPTIONAL. Let the buyer of the food decide what is or is not to be added. Why force everyone to buy a preserved or canned or frozen food with all the stuff already in it that many may NOT want, or even know is in there ? Same is true of fluoridated water. DON'T wreck the plumbing and pipes of cities by FORCING people to drink this water. Fluoride is a HIGHLY TOXIC waste product of the aluminum industry, and does LITTLE good for most people except 1-2 year olds as their teeth develop. Makes EVERYONE sick, slowly but surely. Instead, offer at a HUGELY REDUCED COST--**FREE** fluoride pills to anyone that wants them.
The long term health effects are not known. However, nowadays the consumer has no control, choice or power over them. I think they need to have clear cut differences in products. Some with and some without additives. So we can make up our own minds and not be forced to consumes all these chemicals because they won't put anything else on the market.
Regardless of how much we don't want them, we can't get by without them.
