GMA STATEMENT ON ACRYLAMIDE AND CALIFORNIA'S PROPOSITION 65

GMA STATEMENT ON ACRYLAMIDE AND CALIFORNIA'S PROPOSITION 65

This would be funny, were it not a real story. Hmmm... chemicals, naturally occuring in the process of cooking foods, to be banned by California.

My favorite quote?
"Acrylamide is present in food as a natural byproduct of the cooking process. Because it occurs when natural constituents of foods are cooked or heated, it has been present in the food supply and safely consumed since human beings discovered that cooked food tastes good and is often safer than the raw form. "

Makes one wonder if there might really BE a hidden agenda. Note that the chemical occurs, not just in meats (so it's not a Vegan thing...) but in all foods.

Sometimes I wish people would remember that life really is terminal. If you know you will die sometime, why must "they" make it so miserable here while we live?
