Honestly Mark, you don't think that the crap that we've been allowing food companies to put into the food we eat might have anything to do with the health crises affecting our countries? Obesity, diabetes, autism, asthma -- God knows what else.

I love my caffeine... it's nice and natural and whatever it does to the nervous system just gives you a nice wake up jolt first thing in the morning... so what if it's addictive, but I prefer it to be organic and fair trade certified because I care about what I'm putting in my body. I don't eat white sugar, if I can help it because it comes from beets and as such if it were raw, would be pink, but they bleach it. Is it too much to ask to not put "fake heat" into my food? Especially when there are so many nice sweet lovely peppers with great flavours that would work just as well.

Come to think of it, what about the pesticides and herbicides and other unknown but (God forbid) FDA approved chemicals they spray on peppers before they process them, then they use some hideous chemical to compound those chemicals into something the FDA lets them call a "natural flavour" or "paprika" and pump that into our food as well.

I can't bring myself to eat non-organic apples, I'm not about to eat extracts... yuck!

Give me nice fresh clean chillies without the 341 FDA approved chemicals or give me death!

Sorry Patrick Henry!

Current media strategy requires that the public be kept in a constant state of
fear and dread.  That's how the money is made.

Once the bleating about the pending ice age got thin in the 70s there were
killer bees and exploding nuclear reactors on the horizon.  When that got old
and didn't elicit the requisite fright there was toxic waste that would do us
in.  This decade when the endless nattering about the millions of poor folks
whose brains were being eaten by pandemic mad cow disease didn't materialize,
we got global warming.

Western civilization currently has at their beck and whim the largest quantity
and best quality food the world has ever seen.  The fact that we can sit back
and ponder the minutiae of detail on a product label says a lot (Try that a
hundred years ago).

Folks in developing countries who on a daily basis struggle for potable water
and edible food would be amused by the whole concept if they weren't
preoccupied with dysentery and starvation.
