Arsenic in Apple Juice - Enjoy!‏

http://healthland.time.com/2011/11/30/arsenic-in-apple-juice-a-new-report-suggests-widespread-exposure/

When Dr Oz said Apple Juice was laced with Arsenic everybody shrugged their shoulders and didn't believe it. Now Consumer Reports is saying the same thing and everyone is taking notice. The important part of this story is that most of these tainted Apples are coming from our friends in Communist Red China. You know the people that brought our kids lead covered toys. The people that brought our animals Melamine Tainted Dog food. Brought our homes Formaldehyde tainted Sheet Rock. Now they are bringing our kids arsenic flavored Apple Juice. YUM! What parent doesn't want that for their kids. In the old days Apples were grown in the United States. Those days are over. Now they comes from the polluted groves of filthy China where there are no environmental standards. Drink up. Make sure your pour your kids an extra large glass, they will thank you for it later.

The government has no standard for arsenic or lead in apple juice or grape juice, and the new findings have prompted Consumers Union, CR's advocacy arm, to call on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to regulate the toxins in juice.

Who needs government standards????? Let the private market regulate themselves......See how well that works out? Isn't everyone impressed with how the private industry makes sure our kids are safe? If the government doesn't ram the cattle prod up the azz of corporate American then you get arsenic in your kids apple juice. So the next time you hear anyone say we need to deregulate industry just punch them right in the face. Deregulation = arsenic in your kids apple juice. Believe me you won't find that on the ingredients label either. Everyone is comparing Apple juice to the standard of drinking water.

What nobody remembers is Bush increased the allowable arsenic in water when he was president.
