    Ok, without reading the article, let me see if I can guess what it says.

    The population of the US exists to serve the needs of the 1% and no threat to the population matters unless the damage impacts their profits.

    Am I close?

      Worse: basically the rest of the world already banned it and a lot of other toxic stuff that is in our food.

        I think my guess includes that by default. Unless the toxic stuff in our food is costing the 1% money, in which case it would be odd that they permit it.

        And the US food companies have known this was coming for a loooong time. The biggest names already changed ahead of time.

            not really. generics did. mountain dew is the most well known because its the only citrus soda with such a high profile. It basically was a big thing for stabilizing citrus based ones.
