Is it not the FDA that accepted the idea that if fish can expel certain chemicals out of their body, then so can we, humans, therefore theose chemicals are non-toxic to us. How stupid is that, meanwhile so many food additive chemicals build up in our bodies to the point of toxicity!

take the freaking hormones out of our food! Our life span is shoretened because of it... Freaking 9 yr old girls developing and menstruating, waaaaay before their time. Take that S_ _ T out of our food, no hormonal food for anything that is to be consumed by humans.

I'd much rather eat a cloned chicken breast than a "real" chicken that's been fed so many growth hormones that it tastes like vix vapour rub.
