More disturbing information coming out about what is in the foods we eat every day.  This time it’s Mercury.  Yes people, we’re consuming the always hazardous in any form…Mercury.  We might as well just crack open a thermometer and take a swig.  We’re being poisoned. 

All this after learning that the plant that manufactures the Sam and Ella Peanut Butter was aware on at least 5 previous testings, that they had salmonella in their product.  Never reported it, but knew it and took no precautions or made changes.  The stuff that is in our food supply is astonishing.   No wonder we have health problems!  Look at the shit we are putting in our bodies. 

Back to the mercury.  At least 2 agencies tested on 2 occasions, mercury levels in High Fructose Corn Syrup.  In 1/2 the samples in agency 1, mercury was found in 9 of 20 samples.  In the second test, by another agency, mercury was found in 1/3 of all samples.  These ‘samples’ were comprised of 55 Brand Name Foods.  Make no mistake…these tests have been performed at least since 2005, according to what I’ve read.

Now, it’s estimated that on average, we consume 12 teaspoons of high fructose corn syrup a DAY.  But that’s on average.  Can you IMAGINE how much a teen or young child consumes?    Oh. My. God.  Look at your ingredient labels, if  HFCS is on there, it’s most likely #1 or #2… which of course means it’s ‘mostly’ made of that. 

If there ever was a time to DEMAND the FDA take high fructose corn syrup out of our products, it is NOW.  The FDA has previously recommended not eating a lot of fish due to the mercury content.  Let’s all make it known that we’re know what they know.  And we’re sick of being poisoned.  Get rid of HFCS!!!!!!!!!!
