Why the MAHA obsession with chemicals in food, but not the environment?

Our food hasn’t been safe in a very long time. Fire them all.

Just wait. You really think it can’t get worse? Wait.

The PP is a moron. Chronically underfunded USDA was the problem, but firing them will fix it? And in a supply chain this big, the fact that we are as safe as we are (sorry...were) is. A minor miracle.

Safe?? Americans are sicker than ever, and the sickest country in the Western Hemisphere. You sound like a Fed.

We will be getting sicker. MAHA is a farce. More cancer, infertility issues, and more, for all US citizens, babies, kids, thanks to Trump.

Your hatred prevents objective thinking. Get help.

Provide concrete examples then of how MAHA is making us healthier besides cherry picking food dyea while poisoning us with PFAs?


Nah you are better at insults rather than substance!

Of course the MAHAs have nothing of substance to say. They literally are the party of illiteracy when it comes to reviewing and interpreting scientific research. Easily distracted by flies on the wall like red dye bans while their drinking water gives them cancer.

Yet MAHA does not care one iota about deregulation at EPA which would lead to..... MORE bad chemicals (worse chemicals, frankly) in our food, drinking water, and air - whatever is used in the environment/farming leaches into our water and soil so often is present in foods (e.g. PFAs and microplastics for one, but there are others).

Why the direct contradiction in approaches to chemicals in general?

RFK is very supportive of environmental laws.

EPA regulations have been passed by zealots who are all about restricting development, and 31 major regulations are being reviewed.
CO2 is not pollution, so the endangerment finding should be overturned.

This! Once EPA focused on CO2, they became useless. Completely untrustworthy.

Do you know you're probably drinking PFAs in your public drinking water - and while there are thousands of them, Trump just rolled back doing anything about it and seems to have zero plans to.

So while you could cut seed oil and dye, the research behind PFAs harming your health is quite strong and your fridge filter is probably inadequate. PFAs in your water; PFAs in sludge to grow produce - so while you may choose to buy fresh US grown vegetables over say, Lucky Charms, you're still getting poisoned in the end with the consequence being cancer, thyroid disease, infertility, and more.

PFAs? That's EPA, not controlled by RFK Jr.

Microplastics in seafood? That's EPA, not RFK Jr.

Pesticides? Chemicals used in farming the fresh food you eat? That's EPA, not RFK Jr.

Some chemicals are regulated by both FDA and EPA. PFAS was used in food packaging for its anti-grease properties and was regulated by FDA. Microsoft plastics in seafood may, under certain circumstances, be regulated by both agencies. Exposure levels to chemicals added to food are calculated to make sure the levels used are safe.

There is plentiful research on adverse impacts of pfas on health and no, levels in the environment and our drinking water are not "safe." But we have RFK focused on fluoride because of research on levels twice or much more what is in our drinking water and conveniently leaving out the 700% increase in IV meds foe children under the age kf five when Calgary removed fluoride.

Someone who actually cares about health outcomes, cancer rates, environmental chemical impacts on fertility, risks to developing children, would be focused on PFAs more than food dyes and fluoride.

MAHAs are idiots.

Firing thousands of USDA workers and closing down USDA headquarters is an awfully weird way of saying you care about healthy food.

"MAHA" is a joke.

You get some PFAS in every glass. Make cancer great again!

Yup. The EPA says it will reverse most of the drinking water standards aimed at protecting people from toxic "forever chemicals" known as PFAS.

Even low levels of the chemicals known as PFAS are linked with cancer and other health problems.

While the MAHAs are cheering about dyes, Trump wants to bring back asbestos.
