Answer 1

Hello:

To tell you the truth,I am getting really worried about the safety of our nations food supply. Call me overreactive,but I am really starting to wonder if our government is really watching our food supply safety or not?

I understand that things will happen,but this is starting to get ridiculous! How many more people are going to have to get botulism before the government steps in and DEMANDS that ALL of our food imports nationally or foreign are INSPECTED WITH A FINE TOOTH COMB?

We are talking about the safety of our nations food supply and with pregnant women,children,and the elderly eating the majority of our food supply,when are the proper steps going to be taken to make sure that we can eat foods with confidence,without having to worry about the possibility of getting botulism?

Answer 2

No. Where I grew up in eastern Pennsylvania, the Amish didn't believe in eating from cans and boxes or any processed foods.

I still eat mostly un-processed foods, like fresh salmon, brown rice, vegetables from the farmer's market, etc. These foods haven't had any 'recalls' ever.

Answer 3

No I am not. But then most of the food that has had problems I usually do not buy.

Answer 4

Yes, well, what's the alternative?

You die from botulism if you eat certain things.

You die from starvation if you stop eating everything.

Name your own poison.
