What's in our Food? Fascinating and Frightening.

"Using banned ingredients that other countries have determined unsafe for human consumption has become a pandemic in this country. To prove this point, I found the best and easiest place to look for evidence was just across “the pond” in the United Kingdom, where they enjoy some of the same types of products we do – but with totally different ingredient lists." -Vani Hari (see rest of article at link below)

I'm just learning about all the dangerous food addictives that are found in many if not most processed foods (and even not processed) in our American grocery stores. The most alarming fact to me is that other nations have banned these ingredients, yet the same companies  add them in American inferior versions. Check out this article, "Food Babe Investigates: How Food Companies Exploit Americans with Ingredients Banned in Other Countries," sent to me by a friend (thanks, Loni). I'd love to know your thoughts! As a mom and a former cancer patient at age 23, this is completely turning my food paradigm upside down and changing how I will shop from now on (and I thought I shopped healthy).
