Sorry to bug all you guys about this. Seems various petition requests pop

into my mailbox every day that I don't have time to bother with, but this

one strikes right at our hygienic, raw food roots.

 

 

 

Our " beloved " government intends to require that all greens be pasteurized

prior to sale, and their open comment period from the public runs only until

this Monday, Dec. 3! We need to make our opinions heard and registered

immediately if we hope to be able to still buy raw greens in the

supermarkets.

 

 

 

In the forwarded email below, they refer to the FDA, but they really mean

the USDA. Here are the procedures for posting a public comment:

 

 

 

1) To submit online:

 

Go to HYPERLINK " http://www.regulations.gov " www.regulations.gov. In the

middle of the screen, you will see “Search Documents.”

 

In Step 1, choose “Documents with an open comments period”

In Step 2, choose “Department of Agriculture”

In Step 3, choose “PROPOSED RULES”

In Step 4, choose “Docket ID” and then type in “AMS-FV-07-0090”

 

Hit “Submit.”

 

Next, you will see a column titled “Comments, add/due by.” Click on the tiny

tan dialogue icon, and you are now ready to submit your information and your

comment.

 

2) To fax: (202) 720-8938.

FDA Plans to Nuke ALL Our Greens Soon -- Take Action Quickly!

 

Please don't just hit the delete button. This is too important.

 

The proposal is for federal regulations to mandate the 'pasteurization' of

all greens. And as bad as that sounds, it gets worse: the FDA has started

using the word 'pasteurize' as a euphemism or cover for what they really are

up to, which is irradiation. I've seen this coming (they've already mandated

'pasteurizing' almonds-- burning them with carcinogenic, banned rocket

fuel... yes, really!)-- but they've sprung it on us, revealing their plan

only recently, and allowing only till Monday, Dec. 3 for public comment. (In

the past, the FDA had comment periods of several weeks or even months. This

is obscene!

 

We need to take action. Almonds in September 2007; all greens (including

organic) in the near future; what's next? If we don't act, we have only

ourselves to blame as our food supply becomes ever more nutrient-deprived

and/or toxic.

pass it on to your friends:

Even more important, get to know your Senators and Representatives and call

them; their willingness to address issues depends on how many constituents

call them to complain or voice their support. It only takes 5 minutes to

call the toll-free Congressional switchboard numbers when an important issue

like this comes up, and they are listening. For example, I remember a number

of years back when the FDA wanted to dismantle the the Dietary Supplement

Health and Education Act that is the underpinning that allows Americans the

health freedom to pursue alternative medicine, herbs and supplements.

Thousands of Americans called and wrote Congress to protest aggressively,

and as a result the plan was tabled.

 

Sadly, the FDA hardly ever listens to the public and heeds their wishes at

all these days. That's why I personally think it's even more important to

voice your concern Monday to the Senators and Represenatives who represent

you. Let them know you want your the agri-business corporations to take

responsibility and use more hygienic handling practices and more prudent

shipping methods, even if it costs them a little more, rather than passing

the burden on to you in the form of toxic, devitalized food devoid of most

of its nutritional value. Enough is enough!
