Two Links to articles about Food that should concern you

Here's an article about Strawberries and the chemicals that they spray on them, and how the chemical may be switched to one that scientists use to create cancer in lab animals.
I love strawberries, but I'm also allergic to them (like my aunt) where i get really itchy hands, and also itchy inside my mouth.  Because of this allergy I don't eat them very often, but definitely put up with the allergy a couple of times a year.  However, now after reading the article, I'm not so sure I'll ever eat a single strawberry again in a restaurant or bought from a store covered in chocolate.  I think i'll limit my strawberry intake to only organically grown strawberries.

I gave up fast food after watching a movie called SuperSize me about 5 or 6 years ago.  I do visit P.Terry's from time to time, but I do believe their claim that all is fresh.  THIS ARTICLE RIGHT HERE, really makes me happy that I haven't eaten real fast food in a very long time.
