Rather a moot question as DDT has been outlawed for several years. But the FDA has set standards for how much stuff can be in food sold for human consumption. At one one point human tissue samples had so much DDT, that they were not fit for human or animal consumption.
On the other hand, since spraying mosquitoes with DDT is outlawed, malaria is coming back again.

what would the good in that be?
DDT's do not go away. they have the same ingredients from scotch guard, in POLAR BEARS. like, some how, scotch guard got into the polar bear, through like, someone scotch guarding their house, it getting on their clothes, them fishing with those clothes, the fish in the water breathing in the scotch guard, and then the migrational pattern ending up in the stomach of a polar bear.
true story..
