Exactly.  We have some of that stuff around the house as "emergency" food since
it will keep for a long time.

But much of what we eat is much more fresh and "farm to table" type of food. 
If it spoils after a week in the fridge, we know it was good (or, at the very
least, better than the highly processed stuff).

That's the way we used to be.  Now nearly all of our grocery basket is from the
produce area.  And we still have to be careful.

A while back I lost a lot of weight, to the point that even my underwear was
falling down.  My mom told me that she wanted my old clothes for the poor
donations in her area.  But my thought was "Why would poor people need size 50
pants?"  Because they don't have the money to buy good food and eat at cheap
places - and gain lots of weight.  That was a shock for me.

I think that more and more people are asking the same questions - and reading
labels.

RFK won't have to "ban" anything.  He just needs to tell people "Hey, Yellow #3
will kill you" and most people will simply not buy anything with it in
there.The market always corrects itself.
