Episode Details

Welcome to our new series, The Most Important Question Today. These will be short (1-3 minutes) drops, responding to just one news story daily, with action steps.

Today: The FDA is handling eleven different food poisoning cases right now, and even though we have a rule passed by Congress in 2011 to require recordkeeping for traceability, there's been delay after delay in implementation.

What you can do:

• Urge your elected officials to start the rule for real in January.

• Donate to the Center For Food Safety

• Donate to the Center for Science in the Public Interest https://www.whatcanido.earth/action/center-for-science-in-the-public-interest/

Thanks for giving a shit.
