They want labels to be clear and in plain English.
The goal here is obviously to make life easier for people who have celiac disease or a gluten sensitivity, which includes millions of Americans.
Now, to that point, I asked McCary why there are so many Americans with gluten intolerances.
This seems to have spiked significantly when I was growing up.
Here's what McCary told me.
Well, we know that Preddy was armed while he was interacting with law enforcement and that he had magazines with ammo on him.
It is unclear, however, if he had ever brandished that weapon.
Also, we know that Border Patrol agents were trying to conduct an operation to detain an illegal with a violent criminal history when this all went down.
That illegal is still at large.
Preddy seems to have inserted himself in this situation while Border Patrol is dealing with an agitator.
From DHS's perspective, Secretary Kristi Noem described the incident as an avoidable tragedy.
Here she is on Saturday.
President Trump responded to the shooting just hours after the incident.
He noted Preddy's handgun, but he really criticized Democrat leaders in the state for what he said was inciting insurrection.
Obviously, that term, insurrection, is no accident and very much loaded.
The president also questioned if these leaders called off local law enforcement so that federal officers would be left unprotected and, you know, create this tragic situation.
Right.
The footage shows just a lot of chaos going on when Preti is shot.
You can hear agitators blowing whistles, for example.
That's meant to distract and cause confusion for officers.
