Is your chemical also a carcinogen?
Does this chemical reduce sperm counts?
You don't have any of that information.
And you as a company then can go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's a lot of questions.
Come on, FDA.
I am going to ask you to stop your review, please.
And I call this the take-backsies provision.
Please stop.
Please stop.
I no longer want you to review this notice.
You are going to stop thinking about my chemical.
And then I can go back and redo it and resubmit it.
Or I can do nothing and then just use it in food anyway.
It really shows how the law has been flipped on its head and what was meant to be a narrowly applied loophole has completely swallowed the law, such that the loophole is now the law.
Well, I think people are getting sick left, right, and center.
Okay.
I mean, the good news is that most of the ingredients being used in our foods probably are safe.
But I think someone should be checking.
I think at the end of the day, someone should be looking under the hood of these companies and someone should be looking at the science.
