There is a reason we have the FDA and regulations. Safe Food!!!

I often wonder if my wheat issues are more related to pesticides. In particular ones banned by the EU. If the food is EU safe, I can eat it.

It wasn't even the soybeans that had the problem.

The cargo ships that carried the soybeans had OTHER cargo holds with wheat in them. The wheat had pesticide levels that were too high.

So the grain terminals that filled those ships have to clean up before their shipments can be accepted in China.
