This article gives some insight into what the FDA allows to be in the foods you buy at the supermarket. Surprises include that super-processed, ugly pink slime in your meat, strains of the megabug MRSA, amounts of mercury that exceed the daily recommended 'safe intake,' a component of rocket fuel, and moldy berries. While the component of rocket fuel, perchlorate, is only present is extremely low amounts, in higher doses it can harm one's thyroid. The other mentioned FDA approved monstrosities are similarly harmful or just plain gross. Did you know that up to 60 percent of canned and frozen berries have mold in them?
