Is there a country whose food supply hasnt been tainted by FDA or similar organizations? Adding chemicals or preservatives to food is not cool, especially if they%26#039;re not listed on the label and are deadly. Can anyone tell me if there%26#039;s a country who tries their best to be honest about food supply? And i dont mean the fake %26quot;organic%26quot; labels put into food these days. Oh, and back up your research, thanks =]

Camp: dont give me that, im not from the US originally and yet the life expectancy of a rural mexican is 90 years old, which beats the US%26#039;s 70 yr old expectancy. In part because of the diet they have, the other bc they%26#039;re active and more in touch with nature

geo: well the only reason why i can make that assumption is bc i%26#039;ve lived both in rural %26amp; urban mexico... and rural and urban US. MOST rural mexicans do outlast rural americans. Its still common seeing a 92yr old moving bricks around! When i lived in colfax, ia i didnt meet many 80 yr olds since most had passed away in their 70s (my boss included). I didnt think much of it. I attribute it to lack of activity and diet. Btw before you say the FDA doesnt approve poison, then why do they have mention all possible side effects the drug may and will probably occur in MOST individuals? Wouldnt you call that poisoning the body with just a touch of covered up elegance?

Nope because the world food supply is controlled by the WTO and their codex alimentaire. Monsanto seems to be poised to control the world%26#039;s food systems in under 10 years as they are buying up all the seeds and patenting them.

I love the Amish comment. Know that the Amish use a lot of pesticides in the growing of their food and their food often contains a lot of additives that are not natural-Amish does not mean natural or organic.

There are small farmers in the US who do not go by the FDA/USDA rules and produce truly natural whole pure foods. Find a CSA/farmers market etc.. to find great pure food. never buy processed foods, buy whole foods and do your own processing.

• I completely agree with you. I%26#039;m not sure if any country is really honest with it%26#039;s people, but I%26#039;d say if you want really fresh food with no kind of unknown crap in it... Make, grow, and raise everything yourself. It%26#039;s really the only way you can be sure everything is clean. I don%26#039;t believe that life expectancy has gone up with preservatives. If you think back into the B.C. days... people supposedly lived well into their hundreds. Now, it seems many people do not live past 75. Although, that could be because of a number of other things.
• You make not like the preservatives, but average life expectancy has gone way up since they started being used, so it would seem any bad effects must be smaller that the good effects of preserving the food from spoiling.
  
  Think of it like a vaccine; maybe the rabies vaccine. The side effects may be bad, but not as bad as getting rabies.
• Hello,,around this here part of the woods ,,we call it AMISH COUNTRY!!!!
• in what alternative universe is the life expectancy of a rural mexican 90 years and why not just proclaim yourself as a bias fool. being that you use the life expectancy of all Americans not just rural to compare to rural mexicans. And also to wenlighten your ignorant mind the FDA dont put a thing into the food. They just approve food and drugs for widespread use. Maybe you would like to go back to the days prior to the FDA when everything from urine to snake venom was put into food and there were not any labels to tell consumers what were in it. Oh by the way what do those rural mexicans eat?? I bet it doesn%26#039;t come from a can.
