Well, it’s not fair of me to say that the article is implying that... it’s not. But that’s the conclusion I drew.
- ggm 9y agoSure. It's the conclusion I'm tempted to draw too. But I'm trying to avoid walking into the grand conspiracy, too soon. I think the influence of Monsanto and others on the actions of the FDA are way out of whack, but there are many moments of innocent misunderstanding in this kind of report. I think it's most likely the classic incompetence/malice thing, or a misunderstanding of some kind. Like, FDA testing US farm produce, the shops selling unlabelled, imported, 'US origin' but actually sourced from somewhere else, and re-bagged...
