Mark McAfee reporting FDA/UPB on raw camel milk regs

Does FDA Milk Czar John Sheehan Really Exist?

Breakin NEWS!!

Prior to the NCIMS meeting today, Camel milk was not regulated by the FDA or the PMO. The FDA in a power grab now regulates a broad range of mammals milk including Camels. Our rights are being sucked from us and we do not even know it. A producer in texas was trying to get the right to sell Camel milk and now he is in trouble.

Another sneak attack!!! Now the Arabs have some thing that they can really get pissed about.

The FDA operates in a secret vacuum. A vacuum that does not consider citizens opinions. The FDA considers two things: the impact on its favorite industries and how sterile the food will become.

A producer in texas was trying to get the right to sell Camel milk and now he is in trouble.

What the Eff was he doing "trying to get the right" anyway. If it's a right, just do it. If it's not a right but there is nothing wrong with it, just do it.

Leave it alone, or They WILL try to take it from you!
Sheesh! How can people be so stooopid!

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) plans to break its promise to American consumers to timely upgrade the animal feed ban designed to protect U.S. consumers and the U.S. cattle herd against the heightened risk of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, or mad cow disease).

FDA Plans to Break Food Safety Promise to America

On April 9, FDA published a special filing in the Federal Register giving the public only seven days to comment on the agency's plans to delay the scheduled April 27, 2009, implementation of its upgraded BSE feed ban.
...
One year ago, the FDA issued a news release touting its promise to upgrade the U.S. feed ban by stating, "FDA Strengthens Safeguards for Consumers of Beef," and informing consumers that the new feed ban would become effective on April 27, 2009, after allowing time for the industry to adapt its practices to the new requirements.

Industry gets a whole year to comment but the public gets only a week. It should be obvious that the FDA is here to serve industry, not the public (and the only reason the FDA would give the public a week to comment is because laws require them to give some time for us to comment, despite the fact that the FDA simply ignores public concerns and comments).

Though Westco/Westcott had no comment for SN, an ABC News published report revealed that Moradi had the peanuts tested at an FDA-approved lab and all came back negative for contamination. Since the financial repercussions of recalling product would put him out of business, he sought proof from the FDA that whole redskin peanuts roasted in oil have led to illness. But to no avail.

“For seven years, they did not do inspections [at the PCA plant in Georgia] and now at the cost of a tiny little small business they are coming, and they are forcing me and they have no proof,” Moradi told ABC.

(btw, I think the FDA should generally have very little authority to recall very small companies that could easily be put out of business by such recalls).

So basically, this business buys peanuts from peanut corp. Peanut corp is responsible for selling infected peanuts but the FDA does virtually nothing to stop peanut corp from selling bad food (ie: no inspections, etc...). Instead, the FDA picks on a tiny little business that bought peanuts from peanut corp and, with little evidence to substantiate its actions, tries to recall its peanuts, an action that would practically put this business out of business. The FDA does virtually nothing to regulate peanut corp and to prevent them from selling bad food but then they go and pick on tiny little businesses to put them out of business for no reason. If this isn't evidence enough that the FDA is here to serve the rich and the powerful, and not the American people, then I don't know what is. The big corporations are the ones responsible for selling bad food and a little business gets picked on for it. But the FDA wouldn't dare challenge a big corporation like Peanut Corp (who could get away with virtually anything and be held unaccountable). What a bunch of jerks.

The FDA and health
