Study finds a pesticide in dozens of foods. One effect is that it shrinks male "parts".

So now I know what to blame.

That's what you get for eating Cheerios. Cardboard donuts of bland.

Bring back the great cereals of our youth! Frankenberry, Boo-berry, Capt Crunch, Fruity Pebbles!

Illegal in the US, but still legal to import foods with detectable residues?

Why?

jaguartz, did you read the article? Were the patriots in control?

"While the pesticide is not permitted on food crops in the US, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations loosened during the Trump administration in 2018 allowed the importation of foods from countries that permit chlormequat to be used on food crops - meaning Americans are being exposed to the chemical in some products.

In 2020, the Trump administration increased the allowable amount."

This is true, no doubt about it. But that article and the study it was based on was very weak. For just about any toxic chemical out there, there's toxicological data on the levels in human blood an urine considered harmful, because like you said, there's a myriad of toxic chemicals out there and they're everywhere. So detecting them in humans is no surprise.

The question is, what are the levels found in humans and how do they compare to the toxicological thresholds.

And the article says nothing on that. 97 samples over a seven year period, with no description of how the sample populations were chosen is pretty much a red flag for any serious studies on human exposure to toxic agents.

Cereal is just crunchy sugar, hence the Devil, and the gateway drug to type 2 diabetes.

Y’all go ahead…..

Just wondering, what’s a big box of name-brand cereal cost these days? I remember ol’ BiteMe telling us to stop whining about the price and buy generic, just like he does😛

Keep in mind the source of the article is EWG, Environmental Working Group, it’s not exactly a top notch research group.

we have a LOT of folks to feed and each year, there are fewer farmers to provide the food. Chemicals and genetic modification are taking up the slack, like they have been doing for a couple of generations. How long can this model work? No one knows. Increased yield from les acreage is what is needed.
