Subway/ bad products in food shouldnt be okay'd

"Subway announced this week its plans to remove the controversial chemical Azodiacarbonamide from its bread products, USA Today reported. ”We are already in the process of removing Azodiacarbonamide as part of our bread improvement efforts despite the fact that it is USDA- and FDA-approved ingredient,” the company said in a statement. “The complete conversion to have this product out of the bread will be done soon.” Though the company said the removal process has been ongoing, the announcement coincides with an online petition started by health activist Vani Hari, who runs the site FoodBabe.com. According to Hari, the chemical is also commonly used in products like yoga mats and rubber shoes to increase elasticity. “It’s banned all over the globe, because it’s linked to respiratory issues, allergies and asthma,” Hari wrote in her petition. “This is not ‘eating fresh!’” Hari considers the company’s decision to remove Azodiacarbonamide’s from its products a great victory for health advocacy."

This is not a anti-GMO post, although my house garden is organic, I am okay with GMO products. Heck, the variety of tomatoes I decide to plant were basically engineered by years of trial and error.

Here is my issue, we cant trust big business to do the right thing. The Dept of Ag and the FDA cant be run by ex Montesanto employees. The petroleum based chemicals added to Gatorade, the plastic in "ice cream", and the example above, show the lengths companies go to improve their quarterly earnings as opposed to making better food.

I am normal, I will eat out but I wish the food people would clean this crap up.
