Should We Be Concerned About What Is In Our Food or What Our Food Is In?
With all of our studies, we have obviously found that our food is not really what we think it is. However, the LA Weekly blogged about the harmful chemicals plastic leaks into our food and beverages. So now, we have another danger to worry about! Samantha Bonar reports that most plastic leak chemicals that have the same effect as the estrogen does (BPA). GROSS! In addition to BPA, it has been found that more chemicals also have similar effects. Researchers purchased over 400 plastic items from stores (Whole Foods, Walmart) and experimented with the plastic to find the real truth. Go to this link to read what they found out! Link It seems it becomes even harder and harder to find healthy and safe foods to eat and drink.

It's funny how our food reflects our society. We don't care about the plastic that's contanimating our food, or that same plastic that contaminates our environment. Our impersonal attitude towards food reflects the way relationships are becoming between people. The same lack of care we show towards our food is the same lack of interest we show towards our environment, and to an extent, people.

Oh my goodness, it almost seems as if nothing is free of contamination these days. That is a very good point that we need to be aware of what the food is and the container the food comes in.
