the bill isn't to 'ban' the sales of, for example, Skittles, but to force the manufacturers to better protect those consuming the products in the U.S

Jesse Gabriel, a Democratic state Assemblyman for Calfironia who introduced the new bill, believes the new laws will help protect the state's children.

"Californians shouldn’t have to worry that the food they buy in their neighborhood grocery store might be full of dangerous additives or toxic chemicals," Gabriel said in a news release. "This bill will correct for a concerning lack of federal oversight and help protect our kids, public health, and the safety of our food supply."
Susan Little, the Environmental Working Group’s Governmental Affairs Senior Advocate for California, questioned why such chemicals were ever in food in the first place.
"Why are these toxic chemicals in our food?” said Little in a statement.
Little went on to explain that the same snacks are sold in places in Europe and the UK, yet they contain none of the ingredients set to be banned by California.

"We know they are harmful and that children are likely eating more of these chemicals than adults. It makes no sense that the same products food manufacturers sell in California are sold in the EU but without these toxic chemicals,” she said.
 
Oh dear Lord stay the fuck out of people's lives. I thought commiefonians were educated and could make decisions for themselves.

Wait, I'm sorry, Commiefornians are pathetic sheeple that have to be lead by the hoof from state trough to state trough.

Hey, if you don't like Skittles don't buy them. I don't. Mostly because store candy sucks and is stupidly expensive besides being chock full of state mandated poisons in the form of preservatives.

You're an ignorant dumbass. You can't tell a commie(wat) if he was right in front of you neither can you distinguish a person living in the US from one overseas. Pay attention numbnuts.

Also, because you're f'in bout as useful as a bag of dildos with no batteries, you basically made the whole point of the article in your last few sentences. Sheez. You're pathetic.

let me guess, he thinks it's a grand idea to sell poison candy to the U.S kids?

i'm happy for your good news :)

we'll be doing Mother's Day here tomorrow, mainly for H's mum, really, with family coming... my own offspring are in the UK. no privacy needed; i birthed 3 live babies who are now very much adults, the eldest being in his 40's!
 
as a mother of 3, i would be pretty mad to find out manufacturers were selling such toxic candy to them... there seems to be much stricter food and health regulations back in the UK than the US enjoys :(
 
At some point, companies just need to tell Kookiforney to bugger off and stop selling their stuff out there.

This is exactly why we cannot, must not ever allow another Kook Gov to get in the White House.
 
What's the greatest cause of death, disease and disability?









Birth.



Outlaw birth and the death, disease and disability rates will plummet.


Until then, don't California my country.

so you're quite happy to allow manufacturers to use known carcinogens in their products, specifically those aimed at kids to ingest? you'd not prefer that the food standards in this country mean you can buy and consume products in the belief AND guarantee they are 'safe'?

jaF0 comments like a borderline Boomer Deplorable at times - same with Philthy Phil.

Their consistency on political positions and moral standards are all over the place- kinda like that TrailerHitch idiot.

Back in the 60s and 70s there was widespread agreement that active regulation of businesses was obviously good and necessary because of horrific things companies were caught doing.

DDT was killing off wildlife, thalidomide caused terrible birth defects, so many chemicals were dumped in waterways that rivers literally caught fire. Air pollution in one factory town was so bad it etched window glass. Lead in paint and gasoline hindered brain development. Etc. etc.

Then Reagan came along and convinced the right wing that companies were pure as snow and didn’t need regulation. Anyone that believed that is hopelessly naive.

I’m glad there are people out there investigating the shit that companies dump in food.

Safety is all on you. Can you read? Can you do research? Can you make your own decisions?

Most importantly is can you explain to baby that touch a hor stove can burn you?

Or is the limit of your intellect to be dictated to and regurgitate?
